Default Innovative Wiring(big 3) vs stock (pics!)

I just wanted to post up some pictures of the Innovative wiring kit vs stock wires. The innovative kit is very nice! It comes with everything you need to install, and looks very factory! I'm sure someone will point out that you can make your own kit for less than $95. Well honestly I don't care, I'd rather order a pre made kit with everything i need, rather than ******* around tracking down all the materials, and then measure/cut and all that!

Why upgrade the alternator without going to AD244 casing? CS130D sucks.

This is on my list of things to do once I get around to reinstalling the engine and getting the wiring in there for the last time. I was also planning on getting a larger alternator. To the uninformed what is the difference between the AD244 and CS130D casings?

AD244 is physically bigger and thus can sustain more power, has better cooling, etc. If you let me know what your system does/will consist of, I can recommend an alternator for you. If you have a modest system then you can grab a stock AD244 145A alternator from Ebay for < $100.

Then go for an AD230 if you do upgrade your alt. Not a stock one, though, because those aren't high amperage.

procharged , so the bracket mounts to the alt , i dont think 4-6 inch long standoffs would provide much stability , but if someone has done it already id try it .

Anyone , bueller?

I have thought about doing things like this. I made my Big 3 on my last car and my goal was to make it look factory and it did. I am also about to do it for my new T/A as well. I also made my own O2 extensions using factory style plugs. If I knew there would be a big enough demand I would consider doing something like that and making it a sponsor deal. I will post some pics later of what my extensions and Big 3 look like. I am building my wiring for my new T/A as we speak so I can grab some pics along the way as well.

Have any of you seen an improvement in anything after installing the big 3?
