When you all had your harnesses done, did you re-route the harness to exit on the timing belt side instead of the distributor side or did you just lengthen it and run it behind the intake manifold then through the hole in the firewall on the passenger side?

I did a 3SGTE/ST harness for someone yesterday and was doing some thinking. The 3SGTE harness is actually just as long as the stock USDM Celica harness, but the wiring is routed the wrong way coming from the injector side of the engine. It wouldn't be that difficult to cut open all that looming, route the wiring out the back of it, and have a very clean harness that didn't need to be extended at all.
That probably doesn't make any sense unless you've compared these harnesses side by side, then you probably know exactly what I'm talking about
