Post your engine bay here!
I can't seem to find a thread where people post their engine bay shots. For a turbo forum, I would've expected one of these. If there is already one, feel free to delete this!
Alright, lets see those turbos!

Let's see it! OP didn't specify pretty or clean engine bays. My car doesn't have a hood right now, so I don't technically fit the requirements, but I'll post something when I get the engine back in and the hood back on.

Flat black valve covers look great..
Should I paint the intake manifold to match when I get around to painting the valve cover?
Not the most recent pic, but it'll give you an idea..

. 8psi boost at 2200 rpm is only for diesels, how did you manage that?

That's what I figured. I just think it'd be nice to share ideas and see what's all out there. Reason I did this is because my bay is torn apart at the moment and I'm trying to figure out the best way to route things and if I can do certain things with vacuum lines, etc.
Keep 'em coming!

Oh boy. I will only post shots of setups I actually ran, not just built 
I don't have pics of the first few setups which were basically modified greddy stuff with JimB's I/C pipes.
Then this one, but I don't have a finished engine bay shot online. Boo.
Then the first twins
Then the second twins
Then the first BEGI/FM tubular replacement
Then the second more flowish BEGI/FM tubular replacement
Then the traditional collector mani FOR SALE PEOPLE!!
And now the V6 in progress.
Odd how the toyota COPs aren't in any of those pics even though I use those most of the time.
