Got this for Christmas from my lovely Wife from MRZ Performance. I love the way it got rid of that old worn off washer cap. I cant wait to eventually have all their pieces. MRZ Ftw!

Sorry about the dirty engine bay. Getting cleaned on Friday when I get $ for a wash lol

 

nice man. it's got a nice custom look to. can't beat it!

 

that looks pretty sweet my friend!

 

You running turbo?

 

whoa.... is that a blow off valve... telsta good eyes... didnt see that the first time

 

Yes, Im a turbo 2.4. and thats not my blow off valve, thats on the other side. What you see there is my fpr for my return fuel system.

 

lol read his signature. *sigh* wish I was turbo too.

 

no...its the fuel management system for the return lines....i was about to say...we did a hahn turbo install on a red 2.4 balt this weekend haha...

 

Nice!

 

nice cap... I wish they weren't so expensive... I need to get the rest to finish mine off...

 

thats a pretty clean engine bay there. Someday i can get mine to look like that when i get a 2nd car to not have mine be my daily driver.

 

Thanks for the compliment... didn't mean to steal your thread with the pic there LOL.

Mine is daily driven... though my typical commute is only 30 miles round trip.
The stainless trim and powder coating hold up very well to dust and dirt... and it didn't cost that much to do. I just take a pressure washer and clean it up every month... keeps it looking good.

 

do you cover or tape anything before you pressure wash it? I’m afraid to pressure wash mine

 

cool

 

x2

 

i never have (covered anything)and my car runs fine..or did before i blew #4 piston racing...everything is pretty much rain proof so dont soak it in one spot but spraying it down is fine

 

I would cover at least the alternator. I think ill try spraying it down in a bit.

 

Nope... I don't cover up a thing. It's not like you spend 10 minutes under the hood blasting every surface... just a couple of quick passes with the pressure spray is enough to get rid of all but the most stubborn dust and dirt... and the engine is typically warm when I do it (have to drive to the car wash) so the water drys rapidly.

Never had a problem.

Now I don't use soap or anything... if something really nasty is stuck under there I'll spritz it with a little simple green and scrub it if necessary... but the majority of the time the water only does the job.

 

is it ok to spray around the spark plug area? i get alot of crap trapped down in those grooves.

 

hmm... it should be ok... the coil packs are screwed down on there so they seal up very tight...

again I wouldn't hose it for an extended period of time... but a few quick passes back and forth shouldn't hurt a thing.

 

if you have an aftermarket intake i would cover the filter. especially if its short ram (more for the 2.2/2.4 guys).

 

a valid point... covering the filter on your short-ram is a good idea... wrap a plastic bag around it.

 

i have a cai so no problem there
