11085, Makin the engine pretty
Posted by Mystic511, Dec-27-01 06:39 AM
I didn't want to think about this until i got my turbo. (cuz we all know, nothing is more impressive then poppin up the hood and showin off that turbo) But I wanted to know if any of you guys have hooked up your engine to look nice for show? You know, colored hoses, polished piping, strut bars, etc etc.

Can you give me a list of some of the stuff i can do and perhaps places where I can/should get these things from?

wireloom -- check out JCW .. they have 10ft of 4 sizes for 11.95 cant beat that


vacumm hose kit --- www.hosetechniques.com ask for lucky.. dont buy the eclipse kit.. just buy a a starter kit u get way more

i polished a lot of metal under there by hand.. and some of the piping..you can also lookinto getting stuff powder coated.. check out lotalon (kieths) old pics he has lots of it done in silver i was supposed to buy some but he never REs to my emails

well i thikn my cai and header made it look pretty too.. but ur going turbo.. so no point in that

um i have a strut bar.. check out ebay they got tons of them cheap.

but remember the cheaper thebar the cheaper the quality..
www.groupbuycenter.com usually has group buys on all types of stuff..

make sure its clean.. a clean engine will go a lot farther then one with this and that in it..
