OK seriously impressed, don't know how you do it.
Did any of you achieve this level of cleanliness without removing the engine? I can see having my engine bay look like this for a month after I do my while-I'm-in-there.

I also see a lot of the motorsports air intake. I found this added some drone at 70mph which made freeway driving less comfortable. Do you notice that?

Just great to see these machines being taken care of -
