see the big loop, the loom that looks too short... the whole package needs to be cleaned up.
granted its a smaller project, and i ran out of time and had to use general hardware connectors
but i put similar effort into all projects.

Wow, you take it so personally! So sensitive!
You know, I did some reading and thinking last night. The braided lines for vacuum/breather hose do definitely have their benefits other than looks. They (had better not) won't deteriorate from heat, they won't collapse, they won't swell, they won't get cut open. That is enough functional justification for the extra cost.
I do not know jack about all the different connectors though. Which type are you using for your vacuum lines? These? Push-loc? I assume the catch cans are the flare type connectors.

Ouch. We'll see for how long. Actually, unless I went to a turbo that could flow more you could always have much much more HP.

I understand that, I could of had the car on the road sooner if I had gone a different route, but I really wanted the look of the AN stuff. The bling factor is nice when I pop the hood and get the "holy sh*t I didn't expect that" look from whomever I am showing the car to.

I used red connectors like those for my AIT sensor and those ******* have ripped out on me two times while I was trying to unplug them. It just happened to me again. They suck. Need a better connector.
