Hmm... that looks real close to what I'm planning mine to be.... I'm glad you posted that. I love it!

Is the engine harness going through the firewall by the brake booster?

Wow BoosedFloto,... Incredible looking motor!:love: :yumyum: :bowdown: Looks alot like KW Nates setup, only cleaner because of what you did with the coil-packs. That is 3H8 clor-code too, yes? A very rare color. Post some more pic's please, I need some inspiration!

F F I (forward facing intake ) :)

It must be me. All the front facing manifolds I see are way more cluttered. You can not reach into the side to get at anything.

The top of the engine is empty, but everything else looks packed.

Nothing under there anyway, knock sensors. And you dont have intake piping running over hot turbo, and it looks 10x better, flows better....yada yada yada. All pros and no cons other than $$$ the way I see it.

its funny cause most of the things mentioned in this thread are in this engine bay:

the next thing would be the COP setup and it would be pretty much as clean as it gets. and yes the wiring harness IS in the engine bay...the red wire is the only one not hooked up as we are waiting on a ring connector...

Where exactly did you manage to put everything at that was suppost to be under the hood (need some pointers on where and how to hide all of the electronics and stuff)? Thanks!

hey man, very very carefully lol. We basically stripped the engine bay BARE, and started from there and thought about what was 100% needed and then determined were we could hide it and fabbed up mounting brackets or what ever was needed. It is not my DD so the AC/Heat was taken out,wiring harness run through the fire instead of across it. This has been a year plus project now so unless you can take the time and energy to do it to this extent you will have to play with stuff and just be CREATIVE is the best thing I can tell ya.

Look for a new thread sometime this weekend will post a bunch of pics up as we should be getting her started sunday/monday.....
