Alright guys finally some updates!!

Polished Toxicfab Cam Sensor Shield...



Large Hose fitting which will replace the front right valve cover fitting...Black 90* 6-AN fitting that will thread onto my rear STM fitting and delete the PVC valve...And the 4 things in the plastic bag are check valves...





TCC Coated Toxicfab manifold & Dump!



Synapse DV!



Samco intake with ETS Recirc pipe!



Got a box from STM the other day and when I opened it this is what I saw...haha...



Kiggly HLA...



DEI Black Heat Wrap & Ties which I will use to wrap my downpipe...DEI Titanium Turbo Blanket...



DEI Black Silicone Spray...New OEM Exhaust manifold studs...New OEM Injector O-rings...2 New OEM Oil Return Line gaskets...New OEM Oil Cap with Amsoil sticker...STM valve cover fittings!



A little more weight reduction...driveshaft tunnel heat shield...Hard EGR line...coolant overflow...Also pulled a bunch of other misc crap out of the engine bay and threw it in the box...



More updates will come...I've been doing some minor wire tucking/cleaning up the engine bay, Power Steering Cooler tube delete, Rear Wiper Delete...Toxicfab Coolant Overflow, Toxcifab Oil Catch can, Toxicfab Master Cylinder Brace...I am looking into an even lighter battery, Braille 11.5 lb battery & I will be making myself a new battery tray.....Valve Cover will be getting power coated and will hopefully be buying a new turbo before the end of the month!!!!

nice looking parts BJ! hey is the synapse flanged the same way the tials are?
on the heatwrap, one trick I have used is to boil the wrap prior to wrapping so it expands a lil, then contracts as it dries.

What are you using for the rear wiper delete? That's something I've wanted to do for many months now, but I've yet to find a clean solution.

Thanks Brian...It has been a long and interesting year with the car...been trying a bunch of different parts, some I liked, some I didn't...I am glad I now have the knowledge to comfortably tune the car myself...I am excited for this year, especially working with Collin and the amazing fab work he does...I am still looking forward to you posting another build thread with a new evo or Lana back...

Those are check valves for my catch can setup...The PVC valve is known to leak under boost, so if I was keeping the pvc valve, which I am not, one of these would be put in the vacuum line from the pvc valve leading to my sealed catch can...Then another check valve would be put in the other vacuum line going from the catch can to the intake manifold nipple. Check valves are put in so that pressure does not build up in the intake manifold...
