Bolted most of the charge pipe clamps.

I made the intercooler coupler clamp bolts face down to make the car look like it has teeth. It gives an humorously aggressive look.

Bolted down first coupler clamps. I put them in this position for ease of access and to keep out of the path of the motor radiator.

Secure the banjo bolt and hose clamp at this angle. It will keep that charge pipe from rubbing them.
