hmmm dont like runing leads thru intake manifolds and across injector wires!
you will get lots of noise near your ECU wiring and also have the leads break down sooner arcing to the manifold.
C.O.P FTW!

The wires run right over the aluminum head in stock form, and the coilpack bracket itself is grounded. The injector outputs are low impedance ground outputs not susceptable to noise. The injectors themselves are more electrically noisy then any voltage that could be induced into the wires. And I'm not using cheap stock wires anyways, they are high quality 8.8mm race wires that can handle far more voltage then the stock coilpack output. I don't have the wire seperators on there yet, and the wires are not as close to the harness as it looks.

The wires are not too close to them. The wires are going through the upper manifold holes, not the lower.
Ive been trying to figure out where i wanted to put the coilpack... thats genious! I think i might weld my plate on that ground support.
Time for some billet cam covers now...

Thanks for the motivation, I went out in the garage for a bit tonight.
Here's where it's at now:
Inside the valve covers looks like the day I put the engine together about 3 years ago. 20/50 Castrol VR-1 Racing Oil ftw!
New coolant reservoir and relocated ps reservoir, coolant resevoir not mounted yet.
After tigger helps me with my turbo install, he likes to lay down a funky groove or fat beat.

Would an NA set of leads be long enough?
I think you would need to buy two sets to get 6 that are long enough, but yes it would work.

Called them already, they don't sell the coilpack end or the plug ends separate, they are both molded at the factory. And the price was ridiculous. I hate that spark plug valley cover, I'm going to remove it.

MMMMM....Garret, I like. I like where you've got the new resivoir at (I believe it's the one where the old one was) I have my new catch can there and I will be relocating my battery and putting my new resivoir snugged up to the bumper.
Looks awesome! I hate that valley cover too...mine's all twisted up as well, is it absolutely necessary? I think it would look a lot better if it were flush with the tops of the valve covers...(hint hint) lol
