Looks tidy! I'll never get tired of seeing an LS intake between two orange shock towers.
I like the intake popping out through the fender. If you keep it high and pointed forward how it looks, it should stay away from the tire. But without a liner, are you concerned about water ingress?
is the Exhaust headed down under the car? That's a big pipe!

It never rains here haha, and all my cars are garaged, I think it will be fine. The exhaust does go back under the car and will be a full 3.5” all the way to the bumper

Damn. What happened?

I'm not entirely sure yet. I was driving and suddenly saw fire shoot out of the hood and in the passenger footwell. My current theory is either an AC line got too hot from the exhaust or there was an oil leak I didn't know about since the fire seemed to come from down low on the passenger side.

What refrigerant?

'Tis a good reminder to keep a fire extinguisher within reach. A conflagration under the hood is scary enough. In the passenger footwell would be nightmare material.

Glad you're ok!

Envirosafe. I tore down the engine bay and it was definitely caused by the rubber AC return line slipping out from behind the heatshield, getting burnt by the downpipe and then the line blew and the envirosafe caught fire

What’s your FPR and rail setup ? Looking to do something similar with mine.

How did you change from the stock fuel lines to a lines ?

I get all from AliExpress. FPR, Dash-Parts, Fuelrail and Connectors from factory hardlines to Dash. In my opinion, it's exactly the same stuff that many ‘tuning brands’ sell at very high prices, such as Speeding/Mishimoto/FuelLaps and co.

Edit: All black now ...

 

[Meatball]

Absolutely nothing special. Yet.

I cleaned up some hoses, installed new kjet injectors and re-painted the intake. I still want to change the mounts but im very happy with how it runs, its idling smoother than ever.
I'd really like to mount my BNE strut brace but as it sits right now its about a playing cards width away from touching the intake. Im wondering if new engine mounts will shift it enough...

I love the aluminum front timing covers. One day...

Does IPD still make those pretty blue plug wires for a b230? (1990 740 Turbo) Mine fell apart and I didn't see them on the IPD site.

Yeah I dont think they sell them anymore... haven't seen them for a while. I think I bought mine 3 or 4 years ago now

 

[John242Ti]

Probably can get the NGK wires. They're blue.

Hello,
Thank you for your email. Sadley those have been discontinued. We do carry the Denso wire set and the are a decent set. Good and reliable. I will say I bought a set of MSD universal 8.5 wire set for my 740 Turbo. Here is the link https://www.msdignition.com/products/spark_plug_wires/universal_super_conductor_8_5mm/parts/31449 . Some cars this will mess with the radio quality if you listen to the AM or FM radio. Let me know if you have any questions.

Kindest regards,
