Ok bare with me on this. This is the first time Ive ever tried to make a thread for educational info. I am very dyslexic and have horrible grammar and spelling skills. I believe youll all get the point. Also if anyone would like to edit or change anything that Im not explaining well, spelled incorrect or just bad grammar. Please do so or tell me and I will change it. Because of the amount of pics I have and text I will be writing, I will be doing this over next few day/weeks. Please be patient.

I have just recently installed a PR FMIC and relocated my battery with disconnect switch. during this process I also installed ecmlink V3, LC-1 wideband, a new TB, 2 oil catch cans, distribution block for (MPI, fan, and ign. these are the fuse connected to the positive side of battery), install a IAT and 4-bar map sensor for SD, replace all vacuum lines and made a new vacuum point at the egr block off plate. I also painted the fire wall and valve cover so there will be a lot of changes in pics but these are all of same car. I am very close to completion so I wanted to start posting some pics. Maybe this will help other that want to do this as well. Before I start id like to thank everyone that has help me and there are a lot of you. Also before I start id like to thank a few places that I bought parts from. Nothing I order took over a week to get in. Also most of the vendors were very helpful on any problems I had.
here a list of some of the vendors I used:
punishment racing- FMIC
thorrlebody.com- 63mm bore TB and sensors
ecmlink - V3, speed density, cables
jegs- battery relocate and disconnect switch
siliconeintake.com- vacuum hose
fuel injector clinic- seals and o-rings
I also bought a lot of parts on ebay.com- LC-1, oil catch cans, distribution block and fuses
I will add to this list as I go because Im sure Im forgetting some.
Ill start the pics with what I started with and go from there. Due to have 3 comps I have different pics on different comps so I may have to go in and add one here or there. Also I few pics were lost between all the comps.
Also you may notice that I label pretty much everything that I take apart. Even if I know what it is and where it goes. This is for many reasons. one being that u never know whats going to happen and u may run into a problem that make the process take longer than what you planned and you would be surprised how fast you can forget where that plug or hose went. I also put something in any holes that could get metal shaving or dirt or anything nasty in them. I completely degreased the whole engine bay.
So lets start with some pics. here is what start with and what it looked like after removing battery, radiator, a/c in front of radiator, upper IC pipe, front bumper cover and bumper, hood, side mount, intake and unplugged most connector and vacuum line. Also the over flow was removed and you will see pics later of how I relocated it where old side mount was.
Note: always at least disconnect battery before performing any major work to your car.
