Re: Engine Bay Cleanup Project
some updated pics



Does anybody have a idea where these lines go ?
Some broke off when I took everything apart , others looked like they werent even hooked up to begin with.
I really think Im going to just put a block off plate on this and call it a day
does anyone have a clue how to do it?

Re: Engine Bay Cleanup Project
I could be wrong but that looks like a speed density model that did not come with a Maf from the factory

1. He asked for opinions. He has no ground to stand on if he doesn't like the opinions given.
2. Too much red.
3. Everyone saying "He's doing what he wants, let him do it." I say fine. But do any of us REALLY do stuff to these cars just so we can stare at them in the garage by ourselves? No. We want them to look good to SHOW OFF and IMPRESS others. Maybe not with our builds or how fast they go, but definitely aesthetically. We make them look good so we can roll around and get oohhs and aaahhhsss. That's the whole point. In order to help the OP with this, we must give our opinions so he can try and get those ooohhhsss and aaaaahhhhsss.
