Hope you guys are feeling it, a couple of friends really liked it. Looks alot cleaner. No wires were "Cut to Extend", i just clipped off plugs i didnt need. Everything worked to a perfect length.

There are better spots to place those parts. Some look dangerously close to the wheels.

everything measured out perfect! i went to specifics when mounting it all. NOT A RUB ANYWHERE! Nothing will touch even with a 7-7.5"" wide wheel.

Its all very tight to too, no play in any of it.

[nope]

i think it looks great! but how did your filter get so beaten up?

[jdm_inspired]

That box you mounted if I'm not mistaken is the resistor box. That is what I think caused my car to run chaotic. I have yet to find if it was the culprit to one of four injectors not firing, but I'm almost 100% on it. I checked my wiring since I have wire-tucked my own. PS fluid seeped into that resistor box and may have damaged it. If water gets in there, or other chemicals on the road, things might get ugly. I'm just looking out for you bro. That shit isn't waterproof, or even water resistant.

Old AEM filter from a Long-Ram intake on my old crx. When i ditched the OEM airbox, i didnt have a filter but this laying around, it'll be replaced soon.

Soooo you clean up the engine bay and clutter up other parts of the car?

Its been like that now for about 3 weeks, and weve had alot of rain here, and no issues, BUT on that note i will be Armoring/Waterprooring it now. Maybe use some large heat shrink, and a ton of heated Electrical tape.

Everything can be hidden behind the fenders, which doesn't "clutter" any other part of the car.

not tracking man...what do you mean?

Thats kinda what i was thinking...lol but i just wanna know wat he means.

Yeah but in this case he moved some stuff into the wheel well.

I think he is referring to what I was saying. Throwing the resistor box outside of the wheel well.

There are better safer spots to hide your components. You just need a little more imagination, and a lot more time. May require some extending and cutting.

? lol Its behind the fenders, and the only 2 items located in the "Wheel Well" is the Pass Side Ground Box, and the Driverside Injector Resistor Box, which will be Weather/Element proofed this weekend.

Everything else, including the HiD Ballasts are tucked, "Behind the Fenders".

Cant please em' all. lol

I'd move the resistor box ASAP. That's just something bad waiting to happen... ask when not if. Electricity and moisture do not play together well.

Clean tuck though. Looks really good.
