Very very nice, and clean engine bay! You could get an oil filler cap in anodized blue or purple to replace this ugly yellow cap.

Yeah, I'll get an upgrade like the MM kit later down the road, but for now its good. I just ordered the HKS SMF filter to replace the Greddy one, also an HKS D1 oil cap, and a Cusco oil catch can....the next thing im gonna spend alot of money on is gonna be an exhaust and some suspension though...

yeah the lid opens and closes, I didn't want any gauges or anything extruding from the dash....I almost wanted the interior to look factory from a glance. I actually am gonna buy some carbon fiber and make a plate thats gonna be molded in the ash tray so the EVC is centered and eliminates the lighter...

I would get a boost gauge and afr gauge for sure. Especially with the nature of the Greddy kit.
