Left of the coilpack seems to be the engine harness coming through the firewall.
Zaphod got it though. relocated IAC. Meaning there is some kind of large TB on there.
1) I wonder what TB that is
2) the relocated IAC would probably be benificial to those with NA coolant reroutes and have clearance issues with the coolant hose sitting against the charge pipe because of the IAV on NAs.
3) I wonder why there is a small filter on the IAC. IIRC it needs air from the intake..unless it's OK to allow it to bring air in from atmosphere because the car is on MAP.

2. Seen it done, in fact I was tuning one like this, this week.
3. So they didn't drill into the IC pipes, that's the air inlet source. MAP cars don't meter dawg.
Did you notice the new front page image? SEe the green plug near the radiator? thats the remote IAC.
This has a parallel MS install that I built for him.

1. Looks like a Mustang, as that's why the BEGi IM was drilled for.

Nice.
Sorry if my knowledge about remote IACs and large TBs seems common sense to some of you, but I have not really delved into such areas...yet. Brain- as I was typing "3)" I was thinking about it as I typed which is why I said what I did about MAP cars not needing the IAC to pull from a closed source

It shouldn't. But doesn't hurt to just route it like stock.

That's right, I forgot Josh had that on his s/c setup. IIRC I've see a couple other s/c setups with remote IAC to compensate for the relocated TB and idle dip issues.

nah Scot he is right the AIC will allow boost to leak if left open. Back when i just ran mine blocked, with a peice of broom handle and hose clamp i had that ****** shoot out on me and it sucked. The aic either needs to be routed into the IM or blocked to not effect your performance.
