sorry richard, just went through this thread and read your response several pages back to this query that i placed earlier.

"Two nozzles at closest to the outlet of the FMIC, 3-6" apart (along the direction of air flow). Try not to install the nozzle at 6-o'clock due to oil contamination. Anywhere between 8am to 4pm."

Ideally, between 8-9am or 3-4pm. Between 4pm to 8am, there is a risk the jety may be clogged by residual oil within the inlet tract.

You beat me to it.

Oil comes form either breather or turbo shaft during non-boosting period.

ok. here's one photo (yes it's bad) but we used some flat aluminum stock, bent and made brackets to hold the two-gallon enclosure utilizing homemade vibration absorbing mounts. they were made from jetta radiator mounts and some nut-serts. then we tapped the existing holes in the enclosure for the bolts we would be using. then we milled small vertical sections so the tank can easily be removed and installed by loosening or tightening the bolt into the homemade mounts. the brackets mount securely to the body of the car and provide the stability needed. simple, very effective i think, and will keep the fluid from sloshing or moving much at all due to the damping.

this is the radiator support p/n for the bushing we used:

i'll post more as we finish installation!

This is a very nicely fabricated bracket. How do you stop the tank from lifting? May be I cannot see the bolt holding the tank down.

see the bolts on the outside? they thread into the new nutserts and body of the enclosure holding it tight. for removal you loosen those nuts and simply slide the enclosure out. convenient and secure!

and trying to keep the tubing as inconspicuous and clean a routing job through the fender we can do...

and then in bottom center in the below you can see where we tapped the piping for the jets and installed them.
