You should have a large, rectangular, boxy receptacle somewhere in your kitchen with a plastic liner.

You put the entire chip in there and shut the lid.

You might want to just google around for how-to info if a search doesn't turn up some past thread on the BB. Seriously, I have a feeling that MX-3.com members universally sense our cred would be destroyed forever if posting a how-to for this particular "mod." Just a thought fwiw. :shrug:

A local dyno shop had a 99 integra up on the dyno. He dynoed at 110 to the wheels stock and then put a reistor chip on it and LOST 5 hp! What a piece of crap.

I swear to god, Atlantamx3 might has well be reading the directions that come with the chip.

Check the "manual" that came with the chip - if its "parallel" then it goes between the iat wire and gnd - if its "series" then you have to cut the iat wire and put it in series.

IMO if you dont know such a simple electrical concept you shouldnt be messing with the wires....
