Very clean. Not sure what's on the list but the driver's side fender is what sticks in my head. What are you doing for fuel injection? MS? I'd ditch that kjet intake ASAP.
 
On the list currently for the engine bay is version 0.2 of engine wire harness, ditching soldered on pig tails for direct crimp on connectors. Mil-spec bulkhead connector for engine harness. The drivers fender looks ugly but is fully functional, it may look ugly now but it will be fixed in the future(will be delt with when I re-wire the chassis). Unfortunately things move slowly for this car because it is a daily driver. As for the k-jet intake it is serving its purpose for now, Looking into other solutions at this point in time, mainly trying to come up with a solution that will fit in that corner cleanly and will be easily serviceable. currently the k-jet box hose has the re-enforcement's to prevent collapse and has allowed for easy flow up to 20psi without any issue. Not saying that its perfect, Just saying that it suits the purpose for the time being. Almost forgot the EMS is MS3+MS3X running full sequential currently with closed loop boost control and warm up mode on the idle control, I will be adding on a few features to the MS setup mainly the knock module and a few other modifications for traction control. Things will get interesting.
 
Here's my engine bay. Looks kind of stock but it sure ain't :P (All wiring goes in the fenders except for the Nira harness)
Pulls around 600hp on the crank :oogle:

Looks nice. Any reason for using the 16v brake booster on an 8v motor?

Thanks :)

It's actually a brake booster from a volvo 242 -83. The 200-series and 700-series does not have the same bolt pattern.
IMO it's far nicer than the thicker standard one that comes in the newer ones and you got more feel in the breaking (and more space) I've raised up the engine to make more place for the exhaust manifold

Interesting! Here in the US the pancake style like yours was used in the 16v 740 cars
