I was going to mention, this type of work doesn't need to be done on a daily, i mean you could, but it's a hassle, and once you get it that clean, you really don't want to get it dirty again, a second car is a good mod for any evo owner, especially if your going to mod it extensively, hopefully i will have updated pics for you guys real soon so thanks to every one.

Awesome project man and is comming along great. Last winter I did a wire tuck to the extent of untaping/seperating almost all the harness' in the engine bay and rerouting them while I had alot of stuff off the block.Though I did not do every part of the of entire harness and every sensor/plug I've been debating taking it all back apart this winter and doing something more along these lines of what your doing. Keep us updated, maybe it will give me some more inspiration. lol

to be honest, if you have gone that far........I'd say finish it, because relocating the fuse boxes from that point really isn't that difficult. I will update pics for you and if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. you are not going to able to relocate the cam and crank sensors, but that stuff is mainly hidden any way, map sensor is the tricky, but like i said before, an intake manifold is almost a must, factory looks like doo doo.

+1 on the factory wiring looking like a complete bird nest. I'm curious and anxious to see the fuse box relocation. I had looked at doing it and kind of just turned my head even though I would looooove to get that thing out of there. I'm just saying I need inspiration now, but a few hours out in the garage looking at my car I'll be taking everything apart and going at it head first and going all out with it. Either way keep the updates rolling!

one thing i forgot, it's not necessary for you to delete your abs. You can keep it. I did.

I would have done away with the ABS altogether. The Evos ABS system is way too finicky.

I gotta wait for some thing catastrophic to happen to my motor so I have reason to pull her to finish mine.


Otherwise, she looks good.
