Default i want to make my engine bay SUPER clean and uncluttered, what can move/remove???

alright i don't have ps or ac (i removed them) also my battery is in my trunk..
i've removed all my ac lines, condensor, evaporator and thats it.

i'm curious as to what else i can take out that is cluttering up my engine bay that may be related to these components...basically i want my engine bay to look like here is a good amount of open space in there...very clean and un cluttered.

also what can be taken out behind my radiator to make enough room for an intercooler??

Maybe if you post a pic of your engine bay, peeps here can give a few suggestions...

i feel what your tryin to do but in the 4thgen's its so hard to make a swap look really clean like you can in newer hondas.one small thing you can try is to rewrap your harness with new 3m tape so its tight, clean, and black. other than that i just try to keep everything clean and black. you can replace all the bolts visible in the engine bay including headlight, fender and raditor strap bolts with new shiny or anodized bolts. you can get the anodized from napa autoparts for cheap. make sure you have all the oem brackets and just try to keep the motor itself clean. good luck. cant wait to see those pics

One more thing, if you don't use it, the window washer motor and tank. But this is already out of the way on the driver side up by the heaadlight and will not free up much space.
