Custom Turbo Parts.....ALMOST THERE!!!
HAHA ok, so in light of opto_isolator's thread (and request....ahem....gutter minded boy)....here are some pic of some of the parts that I've gathered. There are some things missin' (Like the FPR and Gauge) but these are the most important parts. 
Mom's Xmas Present to me!! = FREE
BOTH items = FREE (Had one friend that had a DSM and one that didn't need his BOV, he's goin for a different one)
FMIC = $75.00 (have to get around to straightening some of the fins)
B/C = $150.00 (Greddy Profec B Spec II
Quick Time Performance Electric Cutout (Hence I'm skippin on the full exhaust....why? When I can run open Down Pipe at the flip of a switch??) = $200.00
For more info: http://www.quicktimeperformance.com/qtec.htm
Turbo...Air Research T3/T04b.... = FREE (bday present from b/f)
V-AFC
Last but not least.....the small (large in my hand Fuel Pump = $100.00
Sorry, no pics of the DR's (225/50 15's on Rota C8's) or the Manifold ($200), that one was shipped to my b/f's house and i haven't retrieved it.
So wish me luck. I'm so close, yet so far!! I'm still missing a few key parts. But soon enough I hope!! I'll get started finishin this up when I get back from my cruise next week.

And I'll be doin it at home. Gotta save $$. 
DoubleDeuce - Actually no. They're NGK Coppers, 1 step colder. They were the ones I was using with the n2o setup.

Rep Power: 0 HAHAH told ya it looked different from here. LoL
I'll definitely try to document that install as well as I can. I WAS gonna do that with the n2o kit, but once we dove into it, i kinda forgot. LoL

Rep Power: 289 Wow Spd, I just saw pictures of your car (thanks to fly, and your link on the forum here) - you have GTP's?! That's a lot of BANK!
Those are NICE wheels, I could only afford the knock-offs, made by Hyper (R1 Racing), which were still pretty expensive. But, they look awesome on our cars....

Rep Power: 289 I just gave up on dealing with the damn fuel rail and bought one from Majestic Honda - and an aluminum weld fitting as well. I'm not sure what type of metal the rail is (I ground off the stupid clip on the end - it almost looks like its galvanized on the outside, but after I ground it down it looked like copper underneath). I'm trying to minimize my downtime......What are your plans?

Rep Power: 0 Plans are to modify the stock fuel rail. But I honestly can't say until i get my hands on it. I seriously cannot afford much downtime either.

Rep Power: 289 I believe that after doing a little research that the stock rail is a zinc plated steel. The aluminum fitting which I bought won't work (since steel and aluminum are two dissimilar metals, they won't weld, or braze well). I am going to buy two steel fittings, and convert my old rail while I'm at it - that way I can sell it here if anyone is interested.....
