Question SLP LTs touching harness... HELP!

I have the original version of the SLP LTs. (Tuned Length) ...The other curse of having these darn things aside from it's lovely ground clearance is keeping the damn harness far enough away from the pipes in the engine bay. ... Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

.. Thanks in advance!

I have no issues or complaints with my headers.... Im sure with some of the newer designs (ARH, Kooks, ect) I could pick up a couple of ponies up top.... But not worth the dollars. IMO I wish I could take pics of how I got mine set up. Im still at work.

Hey, if you can, can you take a few photos of your engine bay for me when you have a moment free? My brain can't comprehend how it stays far enough away from the headers without touching.

Break out the soldering iron. I dont recall what that harness is for but it's not the main PCM bundle so you wont have that much to lengthen

FWIW, never let the bundle rest against the exhaust or a coolant tube. When you open the bundle up youll see why. Wrapping it in reflective tape or the cheapo tinfoil method doesnt help. You've just got to move the harness to a safer spot
