i was thinking about OTVC kit... kept looking at more and more pics of it just to be sure before i purchased it and... i never did. i think it kinda clutters some stuff up and i just chose to take my time and route them so you cant see them.

If you take your time routing them there's no reason you shouldn't have any issues. Zip-ties are your friends. Go behind the ACC bracket so you don't worry about the pulley. Use a good wire separator. If done right, you won't even need any boots. I have no head sleeves on mine and the wires aren't even close to touching my LPPs.

Well, I went ahead and order them a few days ago. Mainly because I figure I will be easier routing them. May be wrong. . . . . Find out soon as all my other stuff comes in!

Heres my take;
If you are easily frustrated, then **** no.
It does good holding them where you want them, but getting there is the biggest pain in the ***, which is why my driver side is OTVC'd and my passenger side is still routed underneath.
The clips that hold the wires need to be hinged, not the tiny screw bullshit.

I put my own together using the msd wires and boots. also sprang for the better pair of crimps. But have since removed them for the LTCC setup. They are just sitting on my shelf now just in case I need to use them later. Also got the made4you wire looms for the centerbolt VC's

Piggy-backing what everyone else said. Take your time, do it right...it will be the best install ever. I have never had a problem with mine after 1 1/2 years. If you can spring for the MSD wires, even better. I personally am running the taylors and haven't had any issues with arcing except for the occasional misfire on start up when its moist out. It clears up in about 5-10 seconds though, might have something to do with my crimps.
I have a picture, only of the driver side though. The driver side is fairly easy to do, and is a great side to start on to get the feel for measuring, cutting, and crimping all the wires. The passenger side is a little more tricky, but nothing you can't handle if ya did the driver's side. Here is the pic (please reserve comments on the A.I.R. fittings, I am in the process of getting rid of it)...
