CRX build part 1b

Ok, So I decided after the advice on this board to remove all the wire, and put in a grommet around the sharp edges. I pulled the wire out, got some split loom from crappy tire and some silicone. It ain't pretty but hopefully will get teh job done. Cut the hole a bit bigger too so there wasn't as much pressure on the wire. After I re-ran the wire I installed the intake, got one from ebay and cut it down with a jigsaw. I don't have a battery right now for real but I do have a group 31 blue top I will be putting in for testing, I just need to get a reciprocating saw so I can finish running the wire in the inside of the car before I put in the battery.

the progress I am making is pretty slow, mostly because I don't have all the right tools anymore now that I don't live with my parents lol. Also because all of the stuff I am ordering is taking 2 weeks or more to come in because USPS is soooooo slow at shipping. Right now the next shipment will be 6" aeroports. I have a couple weeks before they come in and I won't have a tablesaw until after christmas so I have a good amount of time to get the wire all tucked away inside the car.

it wasn't too bad I got a really good deal on it on ebay. It still cost alot but I would say online a good price for 1/0 is like 3.50 a foot but I paid less than that on ebay so it was alright
