man, your lucky. I wanted a blue intake from weapon R, but i guess they dont make it anymore since the only i got that was blue was the filter and that cap you can put over it. if i would of known that, i would of just bought the chrome one. Engine is very clean as of know since its cold and snowing with a combo of rain to go out and clean it. And i would never thought of using armor all in there.

Mine isn't clean at all, haha

I've used engine degreaser and some simple green, but it still looks like crap.

Mine is pretty clean all year 'round. You V6 guys have it easy! Black plastic shrouds + ArmorAll = "clean". Try keeping all the aluminum clean! 172k miles and counting......
