I seem to remember someone was doing a minimalist 'bay, properly hiding everything in the wings and such. Maybe have a browse through the projects section?

that's the 1 also if your having a build done what ecu are you going for, as you may lose the boost control solenoid etc. due to an electronic boost controller. have you deleted the abs or aircon as yet?


corrected for biofroger I'm dyslexic (spell check dosen't pick up miss-spelling if its another correct word grr

i moved my battery and washer bottle to the boot, removed i/c water spray tank , also hid boost controller solenoid and a few other bits and pieces behind the inner wings. tidied and removed a lot of wiring, made up short intercooler pipework and mounted my intercooler upside down.... still looks cluttered though

That really does look good, I dont think your gonna get any better than that purely because of the amount of pipework that is standard on the engine.
