Some of you may remember my previous build thread from about a year ago that I asked to be removed.

I finished my pack not long after that. Here's some recent photos:

Got it pretty close! I have already gone and made a few adjustments to it since the official photo dropped on Monday.

Looks awesome dude! You nailed it.
What type of terminal lugs did you use for the copper wire?
I'm trying to track down some locally but can't seem to find small enough lugs.

I dunno how you got those reference pics so early on but I can see why Sony asked you to remove it. It looks legit

It absolutely cracks me up when I see all the rumors about me getting a C&D, or Sony had me pull the pics. None of that is true, haha

I asked for the thread to be deleted of my own accord. I had my own personal reasons, none of which involved Sony.

Looks like theres a pneumatic fitting and rubber hose that goes into the left side of the PPD?

Where does it go? It's hard to see maybe it follows the ribbon cable into the same hole?

It's a brass compression union mounted on the side of the attenuator.

As Demon Vice Commander said, a brass compression fitting! And yes, the black cable does indeed follow the same path as the ribbon cable and terminates in the same hole.

Have you gone back and made any more adjustments or modifications since the recent appearance of more videos and reference?
