Rat's Nest Wires

I finally got my RB intake and carb on and man does it make a difference! What did you guys do to clean up those extra wires all over the place?

I cut the wires all the way back to the connector. It cleans up the engine bay and you reloom the wires afterwards

I actually got out the FSM and looked at what I didn't need and stripped the harness down. I even unpinned the unsed wire at the ecu, as opossed to cutting them. Just don't like extra wire ends hanging around, too many problems later if one decides to short.

I need to go back and look at what is left to the ecu. With a carb setup, and no emissions, I should be able remove the ecu entirely. Just haven't looked at what it still does atm.
