Default Turbo CRX Engine Bay Part 2

Hey guys, remember my friend's $600 turbo setup?

Before:

Well, my friend cleaned it up a bit and upgraded to a ball bearing T3/T4 and an Inline Pro manifold . He's gonna put turbo T bolt clamps soon to replace those worm clamps and will also get all black silicone hoses. What do you think?

After:

The radiator is not even on ... It's a brand new Fluidyne b.t.w.

Still waiting for the 3 Inch Polished SS downpipe

Also it was leaking oil because 2 rubber washers were missing on the valve cover but that's fixed now. He still has to spray the whole engine bay with engine cleaner.

He had the radiator that way so it would clear the wastegate. Since then it looks like he swapped manifolds and wastegate.

I think the engine bay still needs a lot more cleaning up to do. Hide wires, clean grease/marks off valve cover, and just a simple green job would do the trick.
