before and durring pics of uim and vac rack / crap removal

couldn't find my digi cam for a while and remembered I was taking pictures of the inside of my car, lol. Anyways here are some shots of my project under the hood before and durring. After I am done I will post after pics. I think I like the way it is turning out so far! Who knew taking the uim off would be so liberating

only lets me post five at a time hold on a sec (these are all before pics)

durring pics of the engine bay. Also the connection I had to put together for the water thermo sensor (sorry so blurry) also a pic of my 100 dollar upgraded turbo!!

oh questions though, do you guys think the boost controller is to far from the turbo?

lol, no I'm not putting her under the hood however when she gets older I may put her behind the wheel Anyways It is looking like 100x's better under that hood and the amount of vac leak possibilities are greatly reduced! If everything works out good this will be the best thing done to the car yet. I just had to get an air bleed for my secondary injector as the last thing to buy for this project under the uim and that damn thing coast 40 bucks

couple questions though:

1. is the boost controller to far from the turbo?
2. is the vac source for boost controller and boost gauge the same?
3. after I found out if this works can I cut all the silenoid electrical connections?

Thanks man I think its on its way to becoming a cleaner more organized engine bay but I still need alot more work. My altimate goal is to make it look like that engine bay on rotary ressurections website but I don't think it will ever look like that
