Methinks the title of this thread should be changed to "What's your POSITIVE opinion on this 216"
Certain things work better in certain circumstances than others. You asked opinions on these photographs and some guys that are knowledgable stepped up. I counted almost 40 joints (on the fuel and intake heat) that have the potential to leak. All that is being said is that given their experience, odds are that you are going to have trouble somewhere. I dont think anybody is trying to pimp you on it.
Its your car - do as you please
