Don't get the ABS unit wet!

I second that recommendation NOT to get the ABS module wet... One of two things might happen. The speedo will be maxed out at 150 MPH (not kidding) and the car will be undriveable until the unit is removed and dried out. The other thing that can happen is the unit will be shorted out in which case it will cost you over $1000 to replace it (which will make for a VERY expensive engine washing).
Other parts to avoid is any electrical connectors and/or getting water under the DI cassette. Be sure to use a very gentle stream of water... Don't use a pressure washer. Soaking any greasy spots in engine degreaser beforehand will cut down on the need for pressure washing.
