Stock air box turned ghetto icebox-





New grounds-

4 gauge wire from engine to radiator support


Trans to chassis 4 gauge ground, that also travels up to the battery. Starter and dizzy grounds will also be added at this point.



Grounds at battery, main chassis ground is 0 gauge and the 4 gauge goes down to the chassis\trans ground location-


Engine harness plugs mounted further down the strut tower in order for the password JDM bar to fit. This was done by bending the upper tab on the mounting bracket for the plugs, removing the alt wire tie down and bolting back up to the original bolt hole using the bent up tab. Mounts the plugs perfectly below the top of the tower claering the bar. Hope that was all understandable.

 

Looks good man. I'm also trying to do the DIY icebox as well.

 

How much did the grounds cost you total? Sounds like they do work as far as I've heard.

It's really simple to do it, if you just look an an actual Comptech Icebox and then your OEM airbox you can see how you would do it. If you need further clarification, PM me.

 

looks good, I will have to try that!

 

ahhh man, as if it was that simple...i created my own CAI with heat ducting, duct elbows and a RACTIVE filter.....never even thaught of cutting the styock piping at the resonater

 

sorry, but how does the ice box thing work exactly? You put ice in there or somethin?lol

 

DIY mods are nice. I really like those grounds. Look solid

If I look at my stock ground wires too hard, they become brittle and break.
