Sweet looking car! I don't have answers to questions 1 and to, but for 3, I'd paint the cover the same yellow as the car.

As for my suggestions, I recommend getting some chrome paint (either AlcladII or Duplicolor) and painting the roll cage with it. I'd replace the front wheels with some bigger slicks too, if they'll fit. Those graphics are simply bad ass! I think they would've looked better on a black car with CF hood though, but yellow still looks good. Like the blacked out head and tail lights too. I'd also paint you spark plug wires yellow or black. Yellow would show better.

So your planning on a TwinTurbo? The other intercooler pipe should go to the same pipe the first pipe went to, im not totally correct.
