It sounds like you're getting closer and closer.  One day soon.....

I thought you might be interested, so I'm passing along a photo of the connection between one of the intercoolers and the turbo on the Eagle... given the amount of pressure involved, solid AL tubing is preferred, and the blue hose is braided silicone, good to about 500 degrees or so.  The gap between solid tubes that the hose is covering is only about an inch.  It's ridiculously expensive (I think about $22/foot) but perfect for the task. FWIW.
