i know to many it looks to ricerish....i did it this way to go with the purple in the d2 suspension and the zex nitrous...i plan on losing a decent amount of the purple real soon...the engine bay is not finished...i havent worked on the car for a year...so in the winter im sure ill change quite a bit around. obviously mine is built more towards the show arena rather than racing and speed (thats why i bought a bike).

how do you like your bov? we have the same one...i think. is that the 3 or the 4? i think the differences are marginal....is that a v-band i see? what are its benefits? nice build!
PS do you have it running yet? because i have some problems with idle/stalling and was thinking it had something to do with the bov venting to atmosphere rather than recirculating....i was thinking of buying a recirculation kit...from what i understand vta is mostly so that you can sound cool...which it does lol, but recirculating is actually the best route to go...

It looks good bro.
I would suggest just losing ALL the purple loom, and try to do some wire tucking, possibly getting rid of the EGR and/or cruise control, etc.
The cruise control is gone, and there is some wire tucking done. Wire tucking sucks, I am undoing my tuck so I can just keep everything in sight lol. Wire tucked bays > untucked bays all day, but I just no longer care for looks right now.

Your wrong about the recirc part. If you set up the correct way you can run open bov. Mines never been recirculated.
hmm maybe its my tune...or f/ic, but i'm definitely having trouble stallin when coming to an abrupt stop or slowing down quickly....it takes a lot of finesse to drive my car lol. i've only let a few ppl have at it and i almost immediately eject them lol. i've driven 10,000 miles on this tune tho...thinking i need a new one, especially because im beginning to back fire more often than normal when granny shifting...
well i loooove third gear it pulls forever....but lately first to second my revvs have been shooting up abruptly during very light acceleration....i notice that my cars runs better when im shifting around 4 - 4250 but if i granny shift I either back fire or my rpms shoot up uncontrollably in first.....its kind of frustrating...but i'll have it tuned again by february...still need to do tokico struts, new exhaust manifold, and hopefully i didn't miss red's group buy for those control arm bushings....
