Guaranteed way to tell a 2G manifold is if it has a mdp sensor bolted to the top of it, just like your's does.
 
Best part was I actually had a 2g intake manifold here at work for me to look at. LOL
 
I'm guessing you just got the car? Here's some things to look at fixing...

1. (Red Lines) Connect your BOV back onto the intake. They sell and adapter kit for that HKS SSQV.
2. (Orange Circles) Clean the corrosion off your battery terminals.
3. (Brown Circle) Get a battery tie down. You'd hate to hit a bump and have the battery weld itself to your hood then catch fire.
4. (Blue Line) Connect the coolant overflow line back to the bottle.
5. (Pink Circle) Is that dipstick even correct for a DSM? It's not stock as far as I know.
6. (Green Circle) Get a cover back on those cams. You'd hate for a rock to get in there and make you jump timing.
7. (Purple Circle) I'm guessing this wire is for a gauge. You might want to tuck and secure it somewhere.
8. (Yellow Circle) This is the cheap way to eliminate the cruise control. You can get rid of this box and the actuator off the passenger strut tower by installing a non-cruise control throttle cable.

Sorry to pick your car apart, but you'll probably end up with questions about all of this later anyways. :thumb:

EDIT: 9. (Not Marked) Why is there a T fitting in the line from your intake manifold to BOV? If the wastegate is tapped there, you'll need to fix that too.

hey hey i know it doesnt look that clean rt now i just just just got the car and its my project ill have it looking clean in no time...and no my BOV recirc tube sucking fresh isnt sucking fresh air its booted off...LOL and i know that battery is crappy LOL i got an optima one ready haha thanks for the tips Knochgoon24...i got new hoses for everything havnt put em on yet ### i just got the car but really thanks
 
Please close that timing cover. This motor is an interference motor (meaning that the piston and valves occupy the same space over different time intervals). God forbid you timing jumps, you gonna need new pistons and valves. If it was a Honda I would tell you to leave it open to like VTEC air out ROFL

Overall, doesn't look too bad, only small things to fix.
