I hope you take this kindly when i say waste of time. You'll never push enough power to make that flywheel and clutch that you talked about necessary.

Did you get the BP harness or are you splicing.

e2blade · Post by **e2blade** » May 14th, 2007, 10:03 pm

splicing

way to much effort to get it out of the other 1

lol

Ya thats true, I started out splicing but it started to be a pain in the ahha. Thats because of the BP26 ECU. It will be easier for you if you get BP harness, if you are using the BP05 ECU(that will make it all plug and play with no splicing).

yea i got the bp ecu

but were just gonna add the extra wires for the vics

Did you get the BP MAF with the engine. I know my Mx3 Maf didnt work right with my ECU.

You will have to splic in the MAF and the O2 sensor too with out BP harness.

Removing that harness isnt that hard. Plus in the long run you will be happy you did. I could remove one in 15 minutes.

e2blade · Post by **e2blade** » May 15th, 2007, 11:48 pm

ok

when we talk the wiring harness

its that big black wire that runs for the fuel rails along the firewall and into the ecu right....

cyclonekid78 · Post by **cyclonekid78** » May 15th, 2007, 11:53 pm

Yep plus the one that runs from fuse box to the Alt, and starter.
