    yea, I understand what you mean. But people that do wire tucks on b-series usually want to go all the way to get their engine bay super clean looking. I GUESS you don't have to get rid of PS and AC, but the AC lines, the compressor as well as the condenser (if its a half radiator) clutters up the engine bay along with the power steering pump and resovoir. You ain't got to remove, but i've never seen a Honda with a complete wire tuck have ac nor power steering.

    that like cats who boost and keep ac and ps its all a matter of personal preference.

    Wire tucking is so dumb, don't do it, it makes any wiring issues a pain to fix because you stored it all away.
