Engine bay detailing - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Here are some pictures of my 2005 engine bay with the powder coated cam cover.

When I clean my engine all I do is take it to the car wash and use the high pressure spray and then the high pressure rinse and then go home and spray mothers rubber spray on the rubber and plastic.

I would like to reroute the wiring to the rear of the engine bay and some day install a red anodized fuel rail.

good call, however, you also need to find a good hiding spot for the stock intake box and piping. leave that lying around and you're as good as busted.

Where did you get your cai??

I think you told me before? Do you have pics??

I never did get around to taking pics. Bought it used from a kijiji ad. It's an AEM. It didn't come with the filter, so I bought a K&N to fit. If I hadn't found this one used, I'd probably get the cheapest one on ebay or make one as this intake is just some rubber pipe flex joints and a shiney piece of pipe. It does accomodate the maf sensor though, so makes installation really easy
