Nice engine bay, but you're really choking your intake with that SLP Lid and stock MAF...get a FTP 104mm Lid and 100mm MAFQuote:

they have done several comparisons, the 100mm+ lids do not show any gain what so ever. the maf however is being a huge restriction.Quote:

Very nice! Certainly explains the "wheels up" pic in the Birds thread.
Still waiting for my Bogarts to show up... hopefully this week. Thanks for the help!
Thanks and your welcome. What kind of Bogarts did you end up getting?
D10's -- 15" x 4" front and 15" x 10" rear.Quote:

Well guys....
perhaps nothing to get too excited about, but we have a laser cutting machine at work and i thioght i would have a go of turning out an acrylic cover for the battery! I will soon be having a go at a nice fuse panel cover too. Seems a shame to have the machine sitting idle!!
Didn't know whether to post this in the appearance thread or this engine thread...so did both!!

How did you relocate the coils?
What coil packs did u use ?
I like it how it looks that way
Several companies sell under-cowl coil relocation kits, you use your stock coils and longer wiresQuote:

This was one of my first pics. Obviously not the best contrasting picture, but you get the point.
http://i833.photobucket.com/albums/z...8/DSC02253.jpg
alucarusz28: Looks good. I hid my cruise control module behind the PCM to get rid of the cables across the engine bay in lieu of deleting it. In addition to the wire hide mod, you can also move those ugly ground wires down lower to hide them.
Thank you. Ya that was actually the traction control, the cruise control is down by where my air pump USED to be. Haha. But I knew what you meant. Ya there's still a lot that I want to do but for just the little things here and there I think it looks way better. I took out my tcs, cruise, egr, and air. It looks way cleaner and all of that was disabled anyway so I figured whats the point in having it. Obviously some people disagree, but thats why we all have different cars. And my brother said not to take out my cruise but I've never used it and don't plan on using it. And since I plan on keeping the car for the rest of my life know one else can complain. Hahaha. Besides I like having just one cable to look at.Quote:

So why the super sneak with the Powerdyne or is that how its normally mounts? I had never seen one of those kits so I have no clue. I figure its that because of the location and the FMU. Definitely unique but the whine from the blower gives it it away all of the time or do you just say its a loose idler pulley too like me...:thumbup:Quote:

I am amazed at how awesome the LS engine is. My car has true duals with no cats. when you are behind it, it does not have that obnoxious smell common with older small blocks with no emissions equip. I have the best of both worlds!!
