its nothing major..but i will take pixs when i get home..its just a basic air duct from home depot the kind you use for a dryer..the flexible one. I got that because i was able to turn and twist it and run it up to the airbox so that it gets fresh air from outside..cost me like $5 bucks... the plus side is that unless you really look you won't even realize its there.

You guys suck.

I'm saving money, NOT spending it on my car, and you're making want this so badly.

I knew better than to read this thread...

GSoup

you can either disconnect the battery or you can remove the ecu fuse thats located in the fuse box in front of the battery for over 30 mins .

STONER

Yes. If you disconnect the neg. battery terminal before install, and reconnect when finished, your ECU will reset.

GSoup

just remember only 1 wire is actually getting cut (do't remember the color right now) the other ones your just T- tapping them.

what's tapping? haha i'm such a rookie

STONER

Strip the coating from the wire in a section about a half inch long. Push the two sides together so the threads of the wire separate, then you can insert the wire you wish to tap. Once the threads from both wires are well tangled, hit it with the solder to get a strong conducting connection. It is not that hard I promise. Once cool, wrap in electrical tape, and proceed to the next one. The hardest part is getting the two wires to stay tangled while you hold the solder with one hand and the soldering gun with the other. It would help to have someone holding the wires.

PS wear some latex gloves if possible, I think the oils from your fingers on the wires can prohibit the solder from forming it's best connection.

Spliced, fan-out, forked, or split.
