Default Cleaning up under the hood....

So I was trying to remove a bolt that broke off in the top of my blower awhile back and noticed that the bracket it was supposed to be holding on was just a rats nest of garbage. Vac lines and wires everywhere, just plain messy. A good bit of it is for the EGR and Boost Bypass. Not wanting to get rid of either I started searching and found others shared my pain. So I'm in the process right now of relocating all these things to the cavity below the cowl area (under windsheild wipers) so they are still functional but out of sight. So far it's pretty easy, just tracing back where these vac lines and wires go to make sure I don't cross them. Now that I'm halfway through I've found some weight savings along the way. I never realized those wipers were so damn heavy!!!! I never use them so off the car they go, 5lbs easy. The brackets and a good bit of the heat wrap that is no longer necessary are now gone. I'm taking random pics along the way I'll post these up once I'm done. Wish me luck I don't mess up any of these wires while cutting and extending them....
