I am a sheep and will be going with blue on the rush (but thats also blue).

Your engine bay actually looks quite clean but (apart from the bits mentioned above) I would be looking for some new strut tops, header tank and filler cap

Why drill and tap cos if i got it right you have 4 holes and a aircharge sensor in the plenum already so

1 hole = MAP sensor
2 hole = Fuel reg
3 hole = dump valve
4 hole = Not sure how you got breather plumbing in but bottom one is normal connected to this but normally taken off with aftermarket breather which you have.So Is spare (Boost gauge maybe )so need need to drill and tap nothing
