Thank you sir. When I got the engine running I'm going to hotglue all the small wires to the board to prevent them from breaking off because of vibrations

Mathijs,
looks nice.
Are the green wires going to be used for cable screen/shield?

Most of the green wires are switched 12+ (except the one in the top left corner, that is RPM in from the VR sensor)
The red wires on the outputs are drain wires on the mosfets, the blacks are the power-grounds (source).

Status as per yesterday evening
Todolist: mount the pcb and the small map pcb securly in place, mount the CEL somewhere in eye sight, double check everything and hook it up

That's gorgeous. I'm especially impressed by the fairly close wire-to-heatshrink color matching.
Nice fitment.

Very slick looking setup, can't wait to see it running!

Impressed!
That is a very small box to be stuffing a DIY build into.

Thanks for the kind words
I've already got some ideas for a better / second version.
Ordered some smaller size caps on the input filters I can save a lot of space in the left side (input side).
Then I can fit the MAP sensor on this board (now on a separate board, not in pic, will be fitted in the lower leftover space) and place the board further away from the connector. This way the wires can be routed neater.
I've also ordered some 30awg kynar wire (in 8 colors!) for broad-to-connector wiring to safe a lot of space in the housing.
At the current board I've used solid core wires for inter-connection stuff but the heat of soldering melts the insulation which is messy and the seem to be prone to breaking when bending to much.
I hope die 30awg will be a good replacement but being multicore it wont bent in shape that easy. Will see how that works out

If your insulation is melting during soldering, you are using cheap/crap wire. Solid core is a terrible idea reliability wise, too :-) And the thicker/more cores, the better for reliability.
Given that you're from Europe, please convert 30 AWG into mm squared and strand count ;-)
