Looks real good man. Don't have the slightest idea now as to why they relocated the BOV, a buddy of mine here also got his on the driver side. It seems they've chosen this location for their current kits.

Nope. Ft86 speed factory. Apr sucks. Never go apr. Not worth the hassle.

On a side note...don't be jealous everyone. My oil cooler ships tomorrow.

Also looks like my turbo oil supply stuff was missing. But that's getting shipped out first thing tomorrow too

Drooool. How did you get that heat wrap so smooth! Mine is wrapped as well but looks like I wrapped it in the dark with oven mitts on.

I tried strips but it didn't help. Maybe they need to be thinner strips.

lolol that's hilarious. Mine was just like yours and I pretty much trashed the whole thing and cut some thinner strips. So I had the 1.5" wide roll and cut it down the middle in shorter sections so that where the tape meets/overlaps, it would be on the underside so you can't really see where it ends and meets. I gave it about two to three wraps, but didn't use all 30ft. On the under side I also went vertically along the bottom so help hold the bottom portions where the pieces meet together. Pleased to say that despite beating the shit out of the car in the canyon and burning that turbo up, no issues with the tape.

Hope that makes sense and helps!

Thanks again. Major help. I didn't have a roll so I had cut strips from a sheet. That was fun. Looks much better.
