I clean mine about 2 times a year to keep it looking nice. I use a spray engine degreaser and rags. It's a lot of work but I like it to be clean when someone wants to see the supercharger. I like how you re-routed the wire looms I may look into this tomorrow.

That's apparent you are taking good car of it AND improving it!

I was fortunate, not sure how mine was cared for, but I imagine it was detailed prior to me and the engine compartment looked like new.

it always feels good to see how clean you can get something and then show it off
