Show me your clean engine bays

[AK Maniak]

This thread is making me jealous. You're all doing exactly what I want to, but I don't have any place to put the car where I can do it. =(

Someday I will ... I just wish I could do it now.

I know exactly how you feel. My car is sitting in the parking lot at my dorm just waiting for someone to work on it; too bad i have no place to work on it and no tools because i have no money. I'm just hoping for a miracle.

Mine is sitting behind my work (NAPA), thankfully I can park it there over the winter. Tools are no issue, just the space. I want to go all out on this Talon, fully strip down and build up, wire tucking, relocations, etc.

-Rerouted wire harness
-Removed cruise control, ac, and emissions
-Relocated coil pack, resister pack, and low mounted battery

Thanks, I never could see what the difference would be since the gm maf always shows the same iat signal on my logs. I did make a different upper intercooler pipe to be able to reroute the intake by the passenger headlight and gain some colder airflow at the track when I pulled the light out.

I didn't think the GM MAF could measure IAT.

Here's mine. It's now got a black aluminum radiator and shroud, but other than that this picture is current. (The idea was to hide everything for a sleeper effect. If you're interested, check my mods to see how much I have hidden.)

I just read your list ... and all I have to say is ... omfg. What DON'T you have hidden under there?

On another note, I really like the solid black look. Mind if I borrow the idea?

Itll change drastically after my upcoming deployment this summer. Pics were taken 5 mins ago. I took the bumper off yesterday to repaint it. Should have it done by this evening if I dont get tired and take a nap.

It doesnt, If I remember correctly it just stays at a constant 80deg iat reading which is why I could not do any comparisons.

 

[gofer]

Yea, thats too bad it you didn't have a way of logging IAT's just because I'd be curious to see if moving it there really made a difference. Either way that engine bay setup you've got is amazing and I'm really at the setup, good job.

my old talon now blown up by the new owner I hear

Haha, yeah, it took a lot of work to hide everything, but it turned out how I wanted it to. By all means, make yours black too. It'll look badass on your car.

Wow wvturbo2 that looks amazing...

I seriously don't get where you guys hide and tuck everything? I'd love to do the fuse box relocation but I don't have the time or want to extend the wires...

don't use bondo it will soak up and moisture and cause back side of the hole to rust do it right and weld em up

 

[TurboFritz]
