The ducting is tight. Took my dad and I to menipulate without damaging. I'd almost feel better about grinding the wheel well out a bit. But it's done now.
I'm not sure, its just a slight seep where the hose connects to the hard pipe, but that hard pipe is bent some, not quite kinked, but almost and has a gouge out of it. I think its leftover from my wreck at VIR. I will probably replace all of the hardline with flexible line and reroute it to get a little more room. Might even move the cooler to the side grill opening in my bumper if I can figure out an easy way.

Yea for sure. When running my brake duct the PS hard lines were somewhat in the way. I'm not sure why they are even there. The PS lines go from rubber to hard then back to rubber. So why not remove the hardlines and go all rubber or braided that can flex around each other. Plus the PS hard lines have two brakets that get in the way also
