2G: Shaving your engine bay?!

[DSMOCTANE]

Just wanted to inquire some knowledge about shaving 2g engine bays. What kind of steps have you guys done to clean up your bays on your DSMs? I have my entire engine and tranny out right now as its being rebuilt, and someone one suggested I look into cleaning up all those pcm wires and miscellaneous hoses. What do you guys think? Please share your experiences and inspire me!

It really all depends on how much time you're willing to put into it. There are build threads on here ranging from just pressure washing the bay, to completely tucking and shaving everything with fresh paint.

emissions delete is very simple and easy enough to do and will clean up just about all those hoses in the back there. You can do a wire tuck too, and fuse box relocate. to each his own on that part as far as what plug you need to keep and one you dont and rerouting everything. you can relocate the battery to the trunk too, that'll free up alot of space. here's how my project looks now.



Full wire tuck (fuse box and engine harness)
Brake and clutch line tuck
Fuse box relocate
Battery relocate
Emissions delete
Cruise control delete
ABS delete
A/C delete
PS delete
Hood prop delete (using hood shocks)

Personally if you relocated the battery and deleted abs and got rid of ac and other useless stuff that would be enough. Rather have go than show
