Installed front mount improvised for limited time!!

Ok I bought a front mount and was so anxious to get it installed..only had 2hrs..and did not have enough time for my buddy to hook up the aluminum charge pipes yet..so I said let me try to put it on with stock piping...I dont believe it fit right in place like it belonged there..

used stock coupling for one side tomorrow i will make all piping though if I have time..

like $240 after shipping...the guy labels them treadstone..he sales lots of turbo parts..they are not the obx or ss autocrome ones..I think he gets the cores and gets the endtanks made with his label..

Looks pretty good, does that remove your bumper beam though?
