Sorry about the quality of the pic, I will post more detailed ones as I continue my tuck. I'll have much more time now as my wife left me 3 weeks ago.

Tuckinnnnnnnnnnnn. I would love to get the RS brake system, but I heard it was rather expensive to do it correctly. I have not done much research on it as I've had enough tucking for one winter. lol

..or search my buddy Jeremy's (Evokid03) thread, he has made a custom setup for an ABS equipped car to convert to an RS style non-ABS setup for nearly half the price of STM .

I'm going to say it's a safe bet it would be much easier with the motor out out of the bay. Looks so simple in their pic.

Good luck.

It really isn't that bad. You just gotta get the ***** to cut the first harness, then there is no turning back. You have to finish it then.

I would have to agree also, but since ill have everything out of the engine bay except the short block next winter it will work out good for me.
