So today I got my OMP lines installed. Still burning some MMO in the tank, and plan to switch to premix, at least partial premix.



Looks kinda like a ghetto nitrous system... but it works and that's what matters. This is different than I have seen anyone else run theirs so I brought a pic.



Sorry the pic is crappy, camera phone + shiny new air cleaner FTL.



I drilled 2 holes in the top of the air cleaner right above the primaries and ran some tubing through them.



Now I just need an exhaust and plates...

Like I said, partial premix is gonna happen anyway. I don't trust the OMP really, but I was advised by a local to leave it. So I'm just leaving it and running partial premix.

omp works fine, the only way they really fail is by leaking externally
