runs pretty good for 7psi, pulls hard, i had someproblems with my oil line busting and spraying everywhere, but other than that everything seems fine "fingers crossed"

Looks like a proper HMT setup, Congrats.

One question though, whats up with the extra almost 180* welded bend coming straight off your compressor, should of just pointed the compressor all the way down and did a 90* bend towards the first 180* turn.

Other than that it looks great.

Nice Nice, one thing though, why didnt you just buy a stainless oil line (at least a brake line for oil)? you wouldnt have that problem then.

Thanks, i just used the saab DP piece because i didnt have an xtra 90* bend, but you are right that would've been much better.

This is different oil line, the other one was really big for a feed line, and the way i made it was wrong, thats why it busted. Stainless line? i dont know, i think it's a pain in the ass to mount all the pressure sensors and restictors with steel line. Eventually i wanna get a steel braided hose that i can cut where i want to( if anybody knows a good place to get them please let me know)
