not cheap, but I couldn't live with the other look, they don't reproduce these consoles, and I didn't want just an aftermarket shifter sitting on the floor, liked the completed look of a console there. Plus, where would I put any cupholders??????????

Default Dash and Console

That dash and steering wheel look awsome with the console it will tie it all together. I can't wait to see it done.

you're a funny guy!!!!!!!!!! Just finished plumbing the engine, other than one final line from the filter to the engine. I want to wait and see exactly where the turbo downpipes end up first.

All the in-car and rear of car wiring is done, and everything works. Motor is completely wired along with the trans and paddle shifter. Got a couple friends coming over this weekend to do the downpipes and wastegate pipes, then the front clip can go back on and I can wire the front end. Took a while to figure out how I was going to get to the fuel rails; wanted it clean and there's very little room between the engine and firewall with the engine setback like it is.

Here's how I plumbed the bottom of the Precision Machine intake. Intake air temp sensor is on the left, then a #6 line for power brakes, #4 for wastegates and boost gauge, and then the map sensor.



This is the 1/2" stainless hard line I fabbed up to "y" the main line into the rear of the rails. Stainless looks great, but is a pain to work with, next time I'd likely opt for aluminum. It looks crooked in the second pic, but that's the camera angle, it's actually parallel to the back of the manifold. Very close fit.





The last couple pics are the engine plumbed and my new Fast throttle body. Very nice piece.
