dont bother searching, i can tell you right now.. DO IT!!!
youll have as much HP immediately as this thing....

thats right 10,000 hp.

Its a building too btw. haha.

pretty much zero benefit, and it doesnt usually look that great either.. aint like the wires blend well or have nice lines to them.. they are really all over the place in there.

You had every element in there, but got sidetracked. The benefits are "what looks better to you".

Personally, imo, the more freaking wires the better as long as they kind of look close to a theme you've created for the car.

So, if you have a red car, the red wires are way faster than if you put black one in there.

LMAO, as a proud defender, you must do this for the right reasons, it will either look like hell, and not be functional, or IMO be way bad ***, and be practical..n2o, strereo, etc....most people here do not like it...but plenty of us are all wired up. Used to be more common back in the day....it will not increase your HP...so do it for the right reason, or place $ elsewhere.
