you doin a wire tuck?

LOL @ a wire tuck on the race car. Talk about polishing a turd! Funny, but no. Stripping the entire stock wiring harness out and putting the bare essentials back in for the MegaSquirt ECU. So... I guess the end result will likely be close to a "wire tuck", except that it's more of a wire-delete.

Normally I'm not a fan of that sort of thing, but the yellow really looks good under there :D

its been done before lol there was actually a drag civic and a drag integra, that ran like low 10's or something in import tuner
they both had wire tucks and shaved bays lol
 
Fair enough. I don't think I have the effort to work a race car that looks like a show car. I can keep it running and fast, or I can keep it looking good, but both is a bit much. I mean I keep it clean and looking decent, but show car she ain't. Honestly tho, once Kevin (kcbhiw) is done with it, there won't really be much wire to tuck. About the only thing you'll likely see are the wires for the IAT and the COPs.
 
Am I seeing things here? Is that the stock intake still? All those mods and the stock intake on the turbo!

No, you see right. To break in the engine I ran the stock MAF and a 5psi spring. It's at the shop right now getting tuned now that the AEM was installed.
 
Dirty and alot needs repainted but for the first time in 3 yrs I figured I would post a pic here..........
