OK - I've had enough. People have been mocking how bad my engine bay looks, so I finally completed my project, and tidied it up as much as possible: Before: After: That's as good as I can do. I'm not into purty stuff, just fast stuff.
Looks much better....looked like it was on life support before with all the hoses and wires running everywhere..
Yup. I didn't want to bury any wires untili the entire system was completely tested and working. There's just not much way to do it any cleaner without multiplying the effort by about 10. 5 solenoids, 2 relays, 2 WOT switches, 2 Tach signals, 3 RPM window switches, 1 vacuum switch, 1 fuel pressure switch, 3 systems switches, 1 fuel pump booster, 1 relocated IAT, 1 manual fan switch, 2 fuel nozzles, 2 nitrous nozzles........ 1 headache.
Wow man lol. That first one made me spit out my drink. Looks alot better now though but 1 question?? All that work and you still have a stock air intake??
Nice improvement for sure....you don't still have the infestation in your reservoir do you? Or is it just old and decrepit like Grm's mistress?
Scale from 1-10 Before: 2 After: 8 Since everyone loves talking about CAI's so much....what kind you got coming???
LOL - thanks. I'll take an "8" any day. I make no bones about it. I'm 1% interested in looks and 99% interested in speed. The real reason it all looked so bad, is I was in the middle of the install and testing mode. Once I had completely done the shakedown tests, I started tidying up everything with looming and zip ties. It's still not purty, and it never will be. What kind of intake is on it's way? A shiney one. :imao:
I LIKED THE BEFORE!!!!!!!!!!... ok maybe not...but the after was excellent! haha well done sir well done...now put it to good use and run a 10.98 for us!! Didnt get those drag wheels for nothing!
JMatt, I wouldn't sweat it. Your car is a work in progress. As for people making fun of the engine bay, there's a reason I keep my hood down at meets. :whistle:
