Thx bro, it's getting there.
Needed to space out the elbow another inch.
The throttle body and alt were to close for my liking.

Had a little free time today so I was able to work the compressor cover.
Was able to knock down most of the casting.

Stop teasing us with all the blurry pics! Which turbo manifold did you go with for the EFR?

Please put on a few more photos of your 8374 IWG in place. It would help me a great deal as I'm trying to weigh up if I can get one in my RHD RX8 where the steering column restricts my manifold routing.

Waiting on a couple of things then it'll all go back together.

About that... Seems like a project in itself... I had the loom off but did not like the looks of the 1,000 wires running through it. Specially with having to extend a good hand full of them to the ABS...

It's not bad at all, especially since the fenders are already off...unlike me doing it w/fenders on
I followed kma's writeup, it has all you need to know but let know if you need any other help if you decide to do it.
From what I remember there are only like four wires that you need to extend and none are ABS wires.
It took me a week to do, working on it when I got home from work.

DGRR is full of great people and awesome cars!
I won first place RX-8 again. I was really surprised cause there were some sweet 8's in attendance.
Im hoping to have some new stuff done to the car for DGRR 2015.

Sorry just crappy iPhone pics...
