fuel lines? yes or no. i tried trailing them under the TB and through the manifold, and looks like they come up to the injectors. are these the fuel lines?

ECU. Is the ecu in that general region on the side? There is a shitload of wires going to two inputs. This the ECU. I have only seen an Apexi FC in person and that is all. LOL.

You should unbolt the ac compressor and wire it up if you are going to keep it functional, otherwise you should rip it out too.

Woot. Fuel lines are off. Took so long ripping them off there. Attempted to take off the throttle body, but I did not really get anywhere with it. On the front of the throttle body there is 3 inlets for lines. I guess there are vacuum lines, dunno. There was 2 rubber ones, and one made of cloth or something. Replace it? Sorry, no picture.
All that is left is the ECU, so many damn wires down there, and I have big hands, so it is being a pain in the ***.
'nother question? Was it easier to unbolt the tranny while the engine was in the car, or just haul it out with the tranny and engine together? Of course I would have to pull the driveshaft out. Which is easier? I can always unbolt the tranny when it is out, and inspect the clutch,flywheel, replace the starter if need be, and check out the pressure plate. I have only changed the clutch and PP in an FD with my neighbor. He had me ask something about them. The FD has a forward sprung clutch system or some ****. ****! I forget. I will ask later. Hopefully it will be out this weekend, and there will be tons and tons of pictures as I take off the throttle body, manifolds, and water pump. Hopefully this is helping somebody out other than me.
Woot, wish me luck.
