its kinda ghetto, there right after the intake filter in the drivers side fender. only way you can see them is if you point a flashlight in my fog light hole, or remove my inner fender.
but in all truth, i have no plans on even opening the bottle. its more for shows then anything else. the turbo kit is the install i need to get done to go fast. the kit has been around for along time, just never did anything with it. and the trunk was empty, figured id see how it worked.

i got drunk and almost bought a zex kit on ebay. if you dont plan on using it, at least hit the dyno with it or the track!

That's sweet, what a McGuyver idea using the tool bag to cover up the bottle. Too bad you've never used the gas, I bet you'd enjoy it.

Thats a good hide, cops arent that bright but I wouldnt want to be in the car should they be told its tools and open the bag anyhow.

hmm thats a good idea on hiding the bottle

yea, if anyone tried to take the bag out, it would just show the bottle, but its a tight fit, so it kinda slides on and off.
just got done tucking more wires in the engine bay also, heres a newer pic.

I doubt that ground wire is effective. Looks like you connected it to plastic on the engine side. Since the valve cover is plastic too, the bolt isn't actually touching any metal connected to the chasis. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's what it looks like! I would connect it to the engine hoist tab bolt.

XXX, are you going to do anything about the way the header looks. I love looking at the pics of your tib, but the way the header looks all rusted compared to the rest of the beauty makes me want to :pukeface:
BTW, I love the tool bad idea.

oh man he just PWNED himself.

ground wire is removed, look at the last engine bay pic. i just tossed it there after removing my coolent overflow and relocating the PS resivior. i was just getting it out of the way till i was done. hence why it was removed way before you even mentioned it in that last pic.
header is a 97-98 rd1 1.8 OEM mani. my stock cast piece with built in cat cracked a few years back, swapping over to a old tubular style manifold with no cat seemed like a good idea, and why would i wast emy money on a header when i have this waiting to go on. ;)

im definitly looking forward to the turbo install. it really will finish the look of the engine bay. kind of sad im looking forward to the look just as much as the power.
