What's not needed in the engine bay? Trying to clean it up a bit...
 
Been wanting to do this for a while. Trying to get a list of things I can do to gain some more real estate area under the hood without all the non needed stock crap under there... i.e. wires, plumbing, etc...

off the top of my head I can think of these...

!wire mod
!egr (already done)
!air (already done)
battery relocation
coil relocation

what else?

I'm keeping my A/C!! :lol:

not sure if this would be rather suited in the appearance area or not... we'll try it here i suppose...

There is a way to relocate your hood latch cable, I can't seem to find the DIY page though.

relocation of the hoodlatch is simple ..pretty strraight forward. If u move the battery to the trunk u can always delete ur factory coolant overflow tank and use an aftermarket peice. Could delete ur abs its just how far u wanna take it?

-Remove the TCS module and cluster of cables associated (if you have tcs that is)
-ABS block

I have removed both and it's a nice difference. I didn't have abs or tcs anymore anyhow since going with the new rear back late 08. I don't miss that crap at all.
