So started taking things apart. Very impressed, the little MSM turbo is a trooper. +18psi and lots of spark cuts and yet no oil in my charge piping. I figured it was on its way out. Anyways, did some test fits of the new setup and looks like the EWG well have to be moved a bit and angled too work/not hit things. Nothing big but it should be glorious, things are coming together, everything seems pretty simple and there's plenty of room for activities.
I'm wondering if the A/C compressor will comprise my oil drain at all. I don't think they'll be close enough to block each other
Some turbo bits and nawz

Pffahah +1 for the picture. Have me a genuine laugh.
I'll tell my buddy he needs to get on that ****.
This week and weekend is being dedicated to wrapping up all the small finalizing things. Should be on the road then. But I'm sure some stupid **** will happen.

animated picture depicting my rage at Fab9.gif
CoP setup, $300 instantly taken out, BACK ON MAY 8TH, I've talked to them 5 ******* TIMES now, I've been polite every single time, giving them bug information about their mobile site not showing certain things(stock, contact info, ect..), being promised "Oh, it'll ship next week, if not let me know I'll expedite it", 3 broken promises later, I get shipping confirmation, check of delivery info after no show, GOT DELIVERED TO ******* Pennsylvania, Call and forward the email of shippment info, he admits there was a mistake, says he will ship another out to me to my correct address this time, I ask "well, let's talk shipping my car is soon to be done and I kinda need this, you need to help me out." promised 2 day shipping on JUNE 16th, still waiting.
This is bullshit Fab9.
I'm about to request my money back in full and may never recommend their business.

VHT. So many coats, used the whole can. Oven cured it.
I think what's flaking is the engine enamel but I don't think I put that on there. I dunno. I gotta check again to see if it's pure metal under it.
Swain?
What do y'all suggest then? I've never seen expensive coatings besides going to a powder coater.

Slight overheating problem, thinking due to air in the cooling system (ALLOFIT came out)
Here's some more pictures.
