Default Post engine bay shots(NA or FI)

I have a thing for engine bay shots.
My hatch which is my daily driver so it stays NA for reliability reasons. Yeah she's got mad cancer but that just gives her more character Plus sh'es had three turbo setups in her already so she needs a rest.
Now

previous before old y7 spun a bearing





forged internals blah blah blah
My 4dr which is getting a built LS resides in my garage. Never to see the road till spring at the rate I'm going and getting scammed on parts from people.
Post your pics folk but just one shot of the outside and then one engine bay shot so this won't kill folks who still have dialup for whatever that is. hahaha dialup. Thats funny just to say. :P I think engine bay shots say alot about a person on how work is done and put together. Thats just my thought though

I like those ITB's on the mini-me. I have a set of 600 itb's but need someone to weld up some runners onto a flange for me.
Keep um' coming everyone. Post a pic of the car also if you could.

I'll be honest and say it wasn't the easiest thing to work with. Tuning for boost IMO is easier. I origionally was running them on Uberdata but the map scalars and actual vacuum readings of the ITB's are so wild that it just didn't run as well as they should have with Uberdata. So I switched to Crome. Crome made it run so much smoother and after many hours/day's of tuning it's fully streetable. Cold starts are pretty rough (thats got me concerned with winter coming), but as long as the engine is warm, it feels like stock.
If you do your own tuning you'll learn alot. For me it was a long and rough task but I'm glad I did it.
