Yeah I suppose I should change mine one day. I'll have to move all my MSD stuff to a different spot so that I can move the coolant resevoir and then relocate the intake pipe.

Slightly off topic, but James, in your picture of your engine bay.... the strut mounts and all around the bay look Creek Blue. Was that the original color of your Precidia and you just had the outside repainted white?

In reply to your question. My car was is white but I want to eventually change it to a Shadow-Blue Pearl Effect. I gave the engine bay a quick painting while I had the engine out. The rest of the car will be done once I have the $$$ and have fixed all the rust.

Sorry, for the off topic question. The pictures of the engine bays look great. I was wondering how you guys did the red tubing/wiring. Other than the ignition wiring, did you simply put sleeves over the existing tubing or did you replace it? If you did replace the tubing, what size did you use?

There is wiring loom covers in various colours and sizes as well as vaccum and liquid coloured lines available through an automotive supplier. Gotta just look and ask and google and more importantly when using these forums, use the the search function. There's a plethera of info in there with just about all of the Q's and A's a newcomer could think of and is strongly urged to use. Welcome to MX-3.com Bolverk

It looks to be a 2 piece and that being the case each of the 2 pieces has the necessary bends and length to be cut down to fit the V6. Don't know how or why you would want that extra filter since it will just suck in hot air from the engine bay making it a HAI and not a CAI. Totally up to yourself, but you can get away with a cheaper 90-93 Integra 2 piece unit. Don't forget you have to fit the VAF in there too.
