I've been lurking around the forums for quite some time now and finally decided to dive in and join the festivities!  I'd like to say thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to offer their opinions.
 
I'm currently looking into putting together a decent (Less than $500) Koolance liquid cooling setup together and have put together the following list of parts necessary to get the job done.  I believe I've covered all my bases, but seeings as I'm a first timer I may have made a few wrong choices along the way. 
 

Exos-2 V2  (External Unit)

http://www.koolance.com/w...nfo.php?product_id=805
 

CPU-360  (CPU Cooling Block)

http://www.koolance.com/w...nfo.php?product_id=978
 

Adapter, Intel Socket 1366  (CPU Block Adapter)

http://www.koolance.com/w...nfo.php?product_id=749
 

Nozzle Pair, Compression  (CPU Block Compression Fittings)

http://www.koolance.com/w...fo.php?products_id=397
 

Nozzle Pair, Swivel Angled  (External Unit Fittings)

http://www.koolance.com/w...fo.php?products_id=395
 

QDC (High Flow) No-spill Shutoff, Pair w/ L-Bracket  (Slot Adapter)

http://www.koolance.com/w...fo.php?product_id=1062
 

QDC (High Flow) No-Spill Shutoff, Female Angle Barb  (Quick Disconnect for Slot Adapter)

http://www.koolance.com/w...fo.php?product_id=1077
 

Tubing, Orange UV-Reactive PVC, 1ft/30.5cm

http://www.koolance.com/w...nfo.php?product_id=760
 

Liquid Coolant Bottle, High-Performance, 700mL

 
http://www.koolance.com/w...nfo.php?product_id=553
 
 

Don't get that 1366 adapter as it's not needed, and it is probably one of the worst designs I have seen in water cooling.
 
I also would dump the EXOS- 2.  I would replace it with either a Hwlabs, Thermochill,  Feser, or XSPC 360mm radiator.  MCP 355 pump with an after market top, Koolance makes some if you are interested in staying all Koolance.  And a reservoir of your picking, again Koolance makes some decent ones if want to keep all Koolance.
 
The last thing I would change is the coolant, simply just dump it and use distilled water.  You will want to use something like this to keep your loop clean and algae free.

Keep in mind also that there are other brands available in the water cooling world.  And to be frank , a lot of them are better quality and in some cases cheaper as well.

I would opt for a new case, as todays designs are highly adaptable to many different types of computers. Externally mounting a radiator is (to me) ugly, inconvenient, and unnecessary. However this is only my opinion. You could always make a simple box to house your radiators if you decide to go with the external look, we say choose a different radiator because the names suggested are high performers with a good reputation.

Take a look at that thread and see if any of those interest you. If not, I would def. get a new case.
Your Koolance list looks complete. But there are better products out there if you wish to go that route.

Here is my recommended list of great components:
 
CPU Block:
http://www.performance-pc...&products_id=27630
 
Top of the line block for $89.95
 
Radiator:
http://www.performance-pc...&products_id=25389
 
Great performing rad at a great price $84.95. It is a bit thick but if mounted externally that shouldn't be a problem.
 
Thinner Radiator:
http://www.performance-pc...&products_id=25251
 
If you do opt for another case then this rad is a lot thinner and it still performs very well. $77.95
 
Fans:
http://www.performance-pc...&products_id=24747
The Gentle Typhoons are amazing fans with great static pressure. They are also extremely quiet. 3 fans for $44.85
 
If you want some cheaper fans then Yate Loons are looking for:
http://www.petrastechshop.com/12yalod1cafa.html
 
Those are the only ones Petras has in stock. Boredgunner swears up and down that Petras has the best Yate Loons. I would trust him with my life. 3 fans for $17.97
 
Pump:
http://www.performance-pc...&products_id=20655
 
Best performing pump in its price range. Great head pressure with lost of mounting options. $69.95
 
Reservoir:
http://www.performance-pc...&products_id=23357
 
I use that along with the 355 and performance is top notch. $34.95
 
Fittings:
http://www.performance-pc...&products_id=26972
 
I would get 6 of those in whatever color you wanted. Could vary depending on how you wanna set it up, but at least 6. $35.94
 
Tubing:
http://www.performance-pc...&products_id=24199
 
To me, tubing is tubing. You can get it from Koolance or here whichever you prefer. Just make sure it is the right size. I would get AT LEAST 6 feet of tubing. $16.50
Coolant:
I would only use distilled water and one of these http://www.petrastechshop.com/sikibyia.html
 
One thing I highly recommend by Koolance are their quick disconnects. There is an assortment here:
http://www.performance-pc...p;cPath=59_346_203_481
 
Here is a nice write up about disconnects I would read:
http://forums.evga.comarchive/tm.asp?m=658591
 
Also, if mounting your pump is gonna be tough, I would suggest looking into one of these:
http://www.performance-pc...x&cPath=59_439_767
 
I have one and it is a life savor. I've mounted my pump in every possible location in my Cosmos case. It works well with that res pump top too.
 
 
Using the Yate Loon fans and without any disconnects or pump mounts that comes to $435.15. I did not shop around for the best price, but I gave you what products I recommend. If you shop around at various retailers I'm sure you could shave a couple bucks.
 
My recommended list of WC retailers:
http://www.petrastechshop.com/
http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/
http://www.jab-tech.com/
http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php
 
There is also http://www.frozencpu.com/ but I had a bad experience with them along with several other people.

@flasher4q
Thank you!  Question though, would you purchase another EXOS given the opportunity or would you look elsewhere?
 
Now if I was to consider going the route of upgrading my case altogether what would be some cases you guys would recommend based on your setups or others you've seen.
 
I have been browsing all morning like a nut on my day off and found a nice Cooler Master HALF-X  that really struck my interests.  What do you guys think?

As of now what's out on the market from when I first built mine it's a hard choice for me....I like the idea of the pump and radiator outside, looks cleaner inside the case...but then again it' just my opinion...only problem is so much to pick through....I'm sure that what ever you do you enjoy....
