Default before and after pic of the engine bay of my ef hatchback

here is a before and after pic of my ef hatchback bay. I just wanted to see if anybody have some crazy good idea to add in. I wanted to do a wire tuck but i dont know where to start ! I have heard that the driver side was more easier to start but not sure. I also would like to have some good decent header too.

here are the pics..
before:




after:

So you added an intake and it constitutes a before and after picture thread?

lol

As for the wire tuck...start upclipping those white clips/ties and start getting creative. I tucked mine a little and didn't have to extend any wires. Once you take off those white factory ties you will start to see the light. Before you start go and buy some black wire ties.
