Updated Engine Bay pics
Wednesday, January 27, 2010 3:08 PM
Been working on cleaning the engine bay up. Still have somethings I want to do, and need to work on, but it looks alot better to be. I have to get the IDI cover back on as well. I miss it!!




The part I'm the most proud of is my intake I painted!!

Looks clean John, you should clean up the spark plug wires a little better, or move the coil packs somewhere else. Im not real kean on having the coils right there by the exhaust mani. Does your cowl cover have lines in it or is it just the picture? lol

Keep it up!!

Lines? It is a fake carbon fiber, maybe that is what you see.

As for the plug wires I have done about all I can right now.I did not want the coils there either, but nowhere else to put them. I'm not big on relocating my battery, or the wires stretching that far over either. The one thing I like about the coils where they are it is like they were meant to be there. The stock bracket mounts to the studs for the cruise control perfectly.

The coils are not too close to the header, and I think are seeing less heat there than the stock coils see in the stock location.

I first mounted my coils to the top power steering bolt, Ive seen a few others do it as well. Good spot for them, almost like theyd be there from the factory.

looks good other then the wires. maybe look at ziptying them all together so you see one line instead of 4 lines spread out. then just look at rerouting some of the wires to be less visable and you'd have one really clean bay.
