On your new build. Did your powdercoater strip the springs before they put the new color on them?That's under the gas tank, which is higher than the tunnel. They would be going through the tunnel.

Thanks, I'd like to do mine, but i just don't think I'm going to end up having my media blaster up and running by the time I start powdercoating the other raw metal parts.Supposed to have.
Use aircraft stripper (strong paint remover). It will make quick work of those springs. But really nasty stuff. You can find it at most automotive stores that sell automotive paint supplies. Make sure it says “aircraft paint remover” or something like that.Thanks, I'd like to do mine, but i just don't think I'm going to end up having my media blaster up and running by the time I start powdercoating the other raw metal parts.
Yeah I didn't even think about just using stripper instead of blasting it. Good idea. Thank you.Use aircraft stripper (strong paint remover). It will make quick work of those springs.

I still think you will need to blast them for adhesion purposesYeah I didn't even think about just using stripper instead of blasting it. Good idea. Thank you.
I'm having some trouble deciphering the actual routing... Is the pump supposed to be pushing up to the IC, or is the inlet from the IC and pumping to the front?A bit more completed. Feels like I am slow to make progress right now with so much going on. I started putting together the shifter assembly and also removed the wiring harness from the car to give it its final wrap. I have to say, the TESA tape does give it a nicer look.
I must have thrown away the cable bracket that holds the DF bracket. So I ordered one of those.
Here is a picture of my the hoses going into the exchanger tubes. The one hanging down just needs to be cut to length and attached. Which I have already done.

Also a bit interesting, today marks 1 year ago that I was working on removing parts off the donor. I lost a ton of time when we sold our home and bought another.
