looks really good man, and definately not the everyday honda fab stuff so their is a little more work and research on your end, props to you man. What size is that oil feed line? looks a little big..

Re: I'm the new guy...
 
The feed line is -6... I should probably be using a -4AN, but the fitting going into the Holset is a 3/8 inverted flare, and I could only find a 3/8 to -6 fitting (meant for power steering.) I hope I don't blow out my seals... :l

It would be a good idea to throw a restrictor valve in that line.

You can always use a combo of fittings, male to female to reduce down to the size you need for the line. Either way, nice work and get rollin on that pron
