Actually, thats correct but I worded it wrong. Start from where it goes into the firewall, run it through the hole in the strut tower (as seen in the picture), down and around. I also zip tied it to a hole in the radiator support so it was tight. Than I ran it under some wiring and back up to the hood latch. Like I said before, just make sure you mark off where the top of your latch is w/ a marker (or pencil, etc. whatever) so you know where it sits so you dont have trouble latching your hood when you put it back on. It only took me like 10-15 to get it right again when I didnt mark it but thats 15 mintues more dedicated to your wiring lol
Also, if you are doing all of this make sure that you have some kind of cut off wheel or something because you are going to have to do some cutting on the passenger side. I cut the absolute smallest I could go and still fit the wires in...

Yea, its not that bad though. Alot of people say 1.5-3 hours per side. But Im at about 6-8 right now (with myself anf a friend) and Im still not finished and havent gotten the fenders, etc on yet. I say total of about 10-12 hours for a first timer. You will also need to extend some wires and some you have to really work with to get them to extend. Its definetly a project but looks good when its done. I also just got a battery relocator kit for the trunk so that will help and Im going to hopefully delete all my smog sh*t tonight too.

RE: Wire Hidding...
ok, first off, where is your coil mounted? Also, what all does this entail? Are you just taking the fenders off, moving the wires behind the fender, and lenghthening them where necessary? Im thinking about doing this while my motor is out

RE: Wire Hidding...
OK guys if anyone wants to help me it would be GREATLY appreciated!!! Heres the situation:
I am about to remove the charcoal canister. There are TWO lines running to it. One is a thin black line that runs through the fender and I know that can be cut anywhere just so the tank can vent. Now for the OTHER line. It runs into some kind of valve or something and than part of the harness is connected to this valve and it runs under the upper manifold. I have NO CLUE what this thing is and I dont want to take the canister off if im supposed to do something with this line thats comming off of it. Does anyone have any idea? Im stumped and I cant go any further into the my canister deleting project until I know what Im doing. Here is a picture of it: any ideas?
