So... 30 hours later, I've completely rewired the car again. LOL. Used a painless prewired kit this time, this is the ONLY way to go! Man theres alot of damn wires in a car lol

Heres we go

The pile of poop left over. Thats AFTER I already wired the car again

So there we go. New ATP BOV (man its sweet looking), just waiting to get the pipe w/ the flange welded to back tomorrow. Start bending brake lines tomorrow. Also have to finish the headlight relay (hence the couple wires still hanging there).

The only wires that will be left in the engine bay are the ones behind the intake. The ones just hanging there off the DS edge are going through the fender well tomorrow :D

Oh, you can see I tried the red engine scheme... looked horrid.

Damn that looks good. Who does all your tube fabrication? Do you have any issues with that long pipe going to your intake manifold and the engine torqueing over? That radiator enclosure looks good, but why do you have part of the backside covered?
