crowded engine bay..

well i look at my engine bay and see no room anywhere, its all clustered everywhere, is there any way to create more room? so it'll look a bit more tidy and clean, like a mini battery, thats all i could think of. anyone else? pictures could help too.

Turbo engines just have a lot of crap to deal with, they have much more piping, tubes, andparts in general that take space. There isn't much you can do unless you want to buy aftermarket parts. Most aftermarket parts will actually take up less room than stock parts - they don't have as many heat shields, resonators, and sound supressors.

a battery relocation is probably the best space "opener"

Its called a "wire tuck", that along with a mini battery and I/C pipe kit will free up a lot of mess in your engine bay, as long as you do a "real" wire tuck....

my intercooler pipe helped a lot:



But yeah a wire tuck would be sick, and removing the ac and all the lines would probably tidy things up.

everything is easy to get to already. this car doesn't "need" anything. although a wire tuck does sound nice but it would mean more difficulty to get to once u need to get to it. IMO
