RE: Cleaning the engine
Simple green, a soft brush for scrubbing, and a light shower spray from the hose. Dry off with some microfiber towels. You can shine things up with armor all type products but i typically don't. It really attracts dirt and creates an even bigger mess for the next cleaning. If you have a CAI cover up the filter with a plastic bag. Some might suggest doing the same with the fuse box. I think as long as you don't use high pressure on it, it will be fine. Don't forget underneath the hood. I did mine last weekend and it turned out great.
With pressure sprayers you risk getting water where you don't want too...you just have to be careful. Plus since you drove it to the local car wash your engine is pretty hot and spraying a hot engine down could be bad.

I thought washing the engine with a regular pressure wash was a no-no unless you cover those "fragile" parts that don't like getting wet..?

Oh and Back 2 Black works real good on all the plastic and rubber parts under the hood.
