Default All the damn wires in the engine bay???

Well as you guys all know I am boostin my accord but I would like my engine bay to look clean also. So I was wondering what all I can take out from the engine bay that the car will still perform the same? I know I can take out the Windshield fluid reservoir, the AC, one of the radiator fans, and cruise control. What else can I remove and it will not effect how the car runs? I would also like to hide the wires. I was wondering how you guys do that on your car because I find it almost impossible with my accord. Pics of steps of how you did it would be sweet. Thanks

You need to look at some of the threads in the appearance cosmetic forum

People just reroute the wires so they are out of view, like behind the engine block. Some people go as far as putting everything out of view except for the spark plug wires. And damn, it looks ******* clean.

So no one has pics of accords with a clean engine bay or NO ONE knows what I can take out of the engine bay and still have the car run perfect
