www.anplumbing.com is your friend. Having the shops make you up hose gets expensive quick and they don't have nearly as many nice options as Earls does.

Looks good. You should buy a MoteC M880 from Tony Palo or John Reed and let Aaron tune it

It is.

Thanks for all the comments guys, im pretty much finishing everything up, got it fired up today and the fuel pressure spiked to 100psi compared to where it was set at with just the key "on" and I had a leak above the fuel pump around the return line plastic fitting. Im gonna try leaving the fpr really low and I sealed up the leak in the back around the fitting. Sucks when you change a bunch of different things otherwise the turbo kit alone would have been cake. Fuel leaks are no joke thats for sure. Not sure why the return fitting is not part of the housing like the feed but I guess its not ment to have a ton of pressure returning to the tank.

That set up looks agressive! Love the way front mounted turbos look!

Very nice.

What's going on with your slave cylinder? Or the thing around it? Never seen that before.

Competition twin disk, pull to push style clutch. Flip the clutch for and slave and that bracket completes the conversion.
