Thanks! There is a good chance that the car could start by next weekend if Lexiion is able to come over and help a few days. Basically after I get done with the turbo pipes all that's left is to finish the electrical.

I had to make this piece to connect the vacuum tube to the turbo pipe. The vacuum tube has a special connector on it and this piece fits it. This aluminum piece is welded in after the intercoolers. I wanted to post the drawing in case someone needed it.

Here is a pic of the vacuum connector installed in the pipe along with the mount for the bar sensor, it's similar to a MAF sensor. To make this mount I bought some aluminum block and welded it to the tube. I still need to drill and tap the mounting screw for the sensor.
Btw what looks like blood splattered on the floor is candy-red paint I spilled while painting the bumper. I had that paint all over my hands a few times while in public and got some funny looks

Thank you!
I put new insulation on the intercoolers and assembled the piping. I still need to drill and tap the mounting screws for the bar sensor then I can drop this assembly in to the car.

Put everything together for hopefully the last time, looks beautiful. The silver pipe on the right (left side in pic) is just a placeholder. Now that everythings installed I can fabricate the last piece.
