including the troubleshooting caused by me being an idiot and forgetting to re-wire my boost controller after snipping it, ~ 25 - 30 hrs. That also included alot of standing in front of my engine bay just scratching my head (and ***).

if I had to do it again, it would take alot less time, since I know what i'm doing now.

I'll be dropping it off when I get my motor put back together,hopefully within the month. He's doing the motor and accessory harness, twist lock firewall pass through, Fuse box moved to the interior, all unnecessary wires removed.
He's also mocking up the the wilwood brake cylinder, ABS removal and brake line tuck.

not trying to sound like a dick but you know they sell a tool to de-pin connectors and it makes it so much easier than using homemade tools. i used to use a very fine pick which worked fine 90% of the time but once i got this tool. oohhh man its cake now.

I'm aware of the tool, mine worked just fine though.

Nice wire tuck. Im just about finished with mine. And the Setup is almost identical to yours. only i have not had to extend any wires. The rats nest took the longest to clean up.

I just got to drop the chassis off a couple weeks ago. I may make a slight detour on the motor setup, so the engine harness isn't done yet. ABS delete/wilwood master cylinder/brake line tuck are getting mocked up currently. I think the next step is the power steering re-route lines.

I believe he's keeping it up to date on his facebook page.

Glad I could inspire ya Looks super nice! I wish I had a different color bay to make it pop a bit more.

You'll like it even more when I get it back together. You won't see a single brake line running across the back wall, along with that ugly *** power steering line relocated.

Yeah i was thinking about throwing the RS brake stuff in to get rid of the abs. But i drive mine daily. When i get another evo, then i will go all out with this one.
