Woah, where did the inspiration for this come from? Ive never even heard of you washing your car!

When you back in Lough?

The car is filthy, but the engine bay is getting better

Nice going.... Good to see you tidying some stuff up, however, is that the original wiring from the conversion? If so thats a proper shoddy job!

Yer i know its sh!t, what i want to do ideally is run the plugs super short and have two main wires that they splice into and run it right under the fuel rail, under the metering head/air intake pipe and along the chassis leg up to the ecu

Right, did my spraying today after some f**king aboot. Tried this first

but failed miserably as it was uber windy today. So after my dad finished work I relocated to his premisis.

got a heater and a lamp to get some light on the job, cushty little setup to be honest

got sorted and got primered

then after a couple of layers and an hours drying time (24 hours my arse, some people have to get on) got three coats of colour on
so went from this...

to this...

thats all for today, gonna sort out that dodgy injector layout tommorow... again
