trent i thought you were talking about doing a W/A intercooler what happened with that?

chose the easy route ( bolt in ) plus wasnt to fond of the extra weight the W/A setup would have added , I still may go that route latter on .

Green Purple and Black....

Grave Digger looks awesome

No i am ditching the plastic piece , got some Tarus electric fans also waiting to go on too ! Simon this BD intercooler is Huge it is so fat it barely fits in there, it is about an 1/8 " to spare is all .

Sounds good, I didnt realize they where bigger. I am not sure on weather or not I am going to run the W/A or not? probably do it sometime this summer when I am not to busy working / rockstar life styling

Here is old pic so you can see how i put the fuel temp sensor in and the outlet for the lift pump pressure

Thanks guys :hug: We still have to see if it holds up before we know if its impressive after all it is a "buget" build , it does have some bling factor though ! got the rest of the fuel system plumbed today !

Are you going to relocate the FICM Trent?

Are you going to relocate the FICM Trent?

I almost did, but decided It was too big of a pain and too many wires to extend , its not really hurting anything were its at so for now it is staying in the stock spot .

Looks freakin awesome!!!

The blue tube is the Fuel feed rail , its 3/4" inside dia . and has 1 line going to each cp3 and will be fed by 3/4 " line that runs back to the pumps you can also see i put the fuel temp sensor in it also . The polished fuel rail is for the return lines , 2 ports for the head returns and 2 for the cp3 return lines and then a line that runs back to the tank . Basically those 2 rails consist of the entire fuel system , clean and simple !
