Love taps from the valves.. Erector set mounts for fuel cell.... Fuel line below the frame rails... Everything seems to look JDM Tyte to me.. Maybe cut off the excess portion of the zip tie. lol

1- P2V contact
2- Shitty pipe strapping used to support the fuel tank. The wiring job is fabulous as well.
3- Looks like someone ran a nitrous or fuel line in an unsecured and unprotected manner where it's just begging to be snagged on something and rupture. If it's a fuel line...hello BBQ!

Look closer......Orientation of pistons to block. The line running through the sway bar is a brake line... Exhaust welded directly to header where the donut is supposed to be.

The second picture is absolutely amazing. I hate to call the Lord's name in vain but Jesus Christ is the owner of that car that crazy or just completely ignorant of how dangerous that set-up is.

Yes the exhaust will work but why weld it straight on. Makes no sense. I think the first picture is the best runnign the pistons backwards and then hitting Vtec with checking clearances or even having it tuned first.

Not that I know the owner or the car, but how professional is it to post pictures online making fun of your own customers?

Really.

No one has made "fun" of anyone. Mike posted this pics not for levity or a laugh at someones expense but to show what not to do. This exactly what people need to see so they will know better.

I did not post the customers name or pictures of the complete car. I did point out these things to the customer which he said he bought the car this way but he himself paid an engine shop to assemble the complete engine and he wasn't very happy either.

You should release the name of the engine builder/shop so no one ever goes to them.
