Message	around those coolant (turbo) lines.. Those spring clamps wont hold hard enough.. specially around the SS sleeving.. Go to [ http://www.wicksaircraft.com/ ] They are truly locking clamps and are pretty cheap.. I would highly suggest you change them out.. Or atleast take the SS sleeving off where the clamp goes around the hose. Just my .02 on it . BTW.. looks great man! NO, This picture is not photoshopped. It took many times to take this picture. Setting up the timer, shutter speed etc, then jumping on my bike and getting the tire to spin. : AIM:Shawn300zxTT "-Any closeups on the nuts? - zboost(tx) 19:17:53 08/08/05 -Not really something you want to ask another man about...
