Sorry, but that is an absolutely ugly-ass engine bay. lol.

That is a hideous blue, it looks just old and faded..

And that intake manifold reminds me of:

Looks like an ITB setup however look at where the MAP sensor is placed.......


Why put the MAP sensor there when it is not even functional in this setup.

Keep scratching your head because that's not an intake manifold but rather a carbon airbox (looks custom) fitted over individual throttle bodies.

As for the color, if you look at the rest of that engine bay I doubt the owner/shop cares, looks to me to be built to function at the track, not meet your aesthetic requirements (note the battery kill switch)

If it wasn't built with asthetics in mind, then why the gay-papa-smurf-blue-painted valve color? All I'm simply saying is, it looks sofa king ghey.

As for the fact it being an induction box, not an intake manifold.. I said that it reminds me of the CTAE. Lame.

And regarding my sig.. it's a custom rally light bracket I had designed for a night AutoX Series we had in Atlanta last year. It incorporated 4x Hella FF200 Xenon Driving Lights with one-off 55w Hella Ballasts I had designed. I'm an engineer for Hella, so literally, it was all for shits and giggles.. nothing serious about it at all.


Ya'll need to relax and take it down a couple of notches with your "JDM Communism" bullshit.. lol. "OH it is SOOO not an intake manifold.. it's actually a carbon airbox... NOOB" lol, Yea, you're cool

Yea... my bad I didn't notice how cool it was!!!

Guess you told me

I don't remember calling anything "JDM" or doing anything other than pointing out that you were incorrect in calling it an intake manifold (you did call it an intake manifold) and that perhaps if you knew what it really was you would be more appreciative of the intent of that engine bay and less worried about the aesthetics.

While I'm at it, I don't remember saying anything offensive, using profanity, trying to insult you, or calling anything gay (or ghey). Please proceed to untwist your panties.
