E55 w/ goods, Z32 Project underway
Should have mine up and running this weekend with new anodized fittings, braided hose,etc. Not using much of anything in the 'kit' as plastic barbs do not provide me with much confidence, etc. Will post pics then, but really mine is more a Dad's Tank setup now vs. a FT-P 'kit.' Have not yet decided what to do with the filter yet. The steel holddown fits fine so far. The mesh needs to be trimmed.

Did you replace the felt filter with a carbon impregnated paper cabin filter yet ? I bought one at Autozone and had planned on using it instead of the felt filter.

Thanks for the recommendation, the supplied filter is certainly not what it is cracked up to be. Actually, short of the Dad's tank and filter hold down, the rest of the kit is lacking. Working on it now, off to Lowes to get more parts to complete this thing.

Pearl, more importantly, are you going to Famosa with Bramage?
