Trying to free up some space in the engine bay

[Vr4junkie]

Ok looking to clean up under the hood meaning remove unnecessary parts I had a buddy of mine who had an ser and removed the smog parts and a few other things but his engine bay was clean clutter free looking to do the same. I know I won't be able to pass smog but I got that covered so wat are a few thing s I can remove?

depends really what you want to keep. You can remove alot to clean up the engine bay like:
a/c
cruise control
extra vaccuum lines
battery to the trunk
ABS

Really depends how far you want to go. The more modifications your make to your engine, the less cluttered it will be

 

Not trying to post whore, but this is a shot minus A/C, minus cruise, minus battery(in trunk), and minus ABS.

The vacuum lines in relation to the emissions stuff are all gone, and many of the solenoids for emissions are gone also.

This pic was taken before the engine bay was finalized.

deleting emissions and cruise control will free up a bunch of space.

I might just do that delete the emissions and cruise and Battery in trunk.

This is my engine bay without A/C, cruise, emissions. Battery is still mounted under the hood.

These cars are very easy to clean up under the hood, just like DSM's.

Toss out the MAF as well, you don't need that! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

abc123, where'd you position that big ol' wire bundle that sits just under the seam on firewall?

I ran it lower down on top of the front subframe. If you want, I can pm you good pics to see exactly what I mean.
