The Clear tubing will not cave in, it is reinforced with threads to keep it from doing that. Also, my catch can is hooked to the PCV valve so it's not under any serious serious vacume. There are certin types of hoses like this, some are for fluids, some arent. These are coolant lines or anything so I doubt the temp is going to get hot enough to melt them.
2006bb6: Pardon my ignorance, but what is a J32 N2?

Still here... sorta...
Well, don't say I didn't warn you. I had the exact same tubing with my Greddy 9mm can and it got hot enough in the engine bay to make the tubing plyable so it was sucked shut. Mine was hooked up between my PCV valve and my intake as well. I upgraded to steel braided and never had to worry about it again...

It looks good, the painter was about to spray my whole bumper when I got to the shop and I made him stop and tape it all up..
I understand what he was saying... J32 n2 (into) something.. but I still dont understand what a J32 is.

I'm going to ask why?
1. It's not going to fit. Anything short of a full tubular front chassis and it wont fit. Gaurenteed.
2. Whats the benefits? Your going to put so much weight in the front of the car.
3. Wiring. Good luck getting the car to crank, I'm not sure who (if anyone) makes a stand alone engine management and if you can get around the immoblizer.
4. Fabrication. Custom mounts, shifter brackets, axles, hood, firewall, shock towers.. ect ect Everything will have to be custom made.
If your serious about doing this, I wish you luck. If you can pull it off and make it work..my hats off to you. But I dont know what it is about a V6 that makes people want to put them into a civic..at least in the front. Want to do something awesome, put the V6 in the rear of the car. Make is a mid-engined Civic... that would be way cooler than having a 6-700lb engine in the front of the car.
Just my 2 cents.
