Nothing special but I thought I'd post my before and after (as of tonight) engine bay pics. I pulled out the a/c lines tonight. Going to pull the condenser and compressor in the next few days as well. Starting to look cleaner sorry for the cell pics and yes my intake is zip tied at the moment. the bracket the intake came with broke and I'm making a new one. gonna be modding the intake a bit soon

For my a/c delete, Do i need a pulley to replace the a/c or can I get the belt to bypass it all without a pulley

 

[204vividPro5]

Got my a/c compressor ripped out and new belt put in more emptiness

Anyone think the 1.8 all spark plug wire swap is better than the 2 wires 2 coil packs? I'm trying to find the pros and cons.

modified cai

I bought a cold air intake from a guy local from a 2.2 cavalier and I modified and got it all working nicely. Intake sounds very rowdy I like it a lot!

...

I threw the codes p0455, p0421, p0301, not sure i know I may have a slight leak from a hose not being tight enough, I have no cat or resonators so that would be the p0421. but for some reason I got the cyclinder #1 misfire code. It has a slightly rough idle on idle and it sometimes dies out after I try starting up, usually only happens after warm up.

I parked my car for the winter last weekend, over the next few months I plan to lower my car, paint the new front bumper and finish my engine bay tuck. I've been doing a little research on the KL swap, I'm taking a lot of interest in but I'm gonna weigh out my pros and cons. I recently picked up a 1997 Polaris ultra 680 sled, so this winter shouldn't be too bad just hoping for more snow than last year haha
