So i have been cleaning up my engine bay and really liked the look of nylon braided tubing. I really didn't want to go through the hassle of buying all the different diameters and the price was a little much for me. So i stumbled across this cool product that i think looks just as good as the real deal. Its called Techflex, this is the best site i found that carries pretty much all of their products.... http://www.wirecare.com/land_SleevingMain.asp

Here are some pictures of what it looks like in the engine bay...

 

that site is down...do you happen to know which model you went with because they probably make a ton of different ones?

is yours heat resistant?

and how much?

 

I went with the heavy duty stuff because I liked the weave better. I used .38 and .50 it works well with our size tubing it was like 30 bucks with the amount I ordered

 

I bougth 10 feet of the .38" heavy wall for $9.00... http://www.wirecare.com/products.asp?prodline=HW

And 10 feet of the .50" super duty for $15.00... http://www.wirecare.com/products.asp?prodline=SDN

I also bough some heat resistant material to protect my AC line from header heat sense i removed my heat shield, it works very well.

 

also it looks really clean if you use heatshrink on the ends!

 

i love your set up!
but i have the aem v2 set up and my engine bay looks very very empty...
):
didnt know it would be that empty D:

props on your nice, neat, very tighty engine bay

 

Thanks! I kind of like the empty look the CAI's give. The only reason i went with the FIPK is becuase i love the AUT plate and i wanted to use the bumper scoops on both sides to give air to the brakes when i start tracking the car. I just half to cut them out and run some tubing...

 

I plan to tecflex the smaller tubes on the intake manifold as well but they are a b*^ch and i can't seem to yank them off even after using my heat gun (moms old hair dryer). I was thinking about using the techflex F6 which has a seam the entire length for easy instalation, but i really don't like the pattern compared to the regular braided sleaves. If anyone has any tips on how to get the damn things off i would appriciate it!

 

dang thinking ahead haha,
i just get what im feeling but its a waste of money!
now i know my goal for the S
and good thing i didnt waste too much money.

 

nice! Any Idea how big the radiator tube is?
