zukiracer19 · 10-05-2008, 06:10 PM

Where did you run the wires?? through the rubber boot near the peddles?

Nick-G · 10-05-2008, 06:24 PM

Thats where I ran all of my wires. Just poke a whole in that rubber then push the wires through.

zukiracer19 · 10-05-2008, 06:26 PM

Ok I'll try doing that tomarrow... where do they come out?? do i need to put the car up on jackstands?

XtremeGaGt00 · 10-05-2008, 07:09 PM

yea thats what i did, i ran it through with a coat hanger first and attached the wire(s) to it..and pulled them through

boost21 · 10-05-2008, 07:52 PM

Is the upper radiator hose sitting on the manifold?

zukiracer19 · 10-06-2008, 04:40 AM

No, its not touching it. And I wrapped the hose with 2000 degree wrap, if not ill just order the damn braided hose.

zukiracer19 · 10-06-2008, 02:59 PM

boost gauge is simple. Run a vacuum line to the back of the gauge and then 12v for the light. The wideband should have its own harness and instructions online at the manufactures site.

XtremeGaGt00 · 10-06-2008, 03:45 PM

its not hard...did it come with directions?..just concentrate and youll get it...

zukiracer19 · 10-06-2008, 07:41 PM

I'll show you a pic, to me its a buncha crap that is gonna confuse the hell outta me, its prewired from Todd... todd just cut the wires and stuff and gave it to me. ill show u a pic 2mor

XtremeGaGt00 · 10-06-2008, 07:48 PM

that works

zukiracer19 · 10-07-2008, 11:24 AM

The rats nest... i tred cleaning it up but seems like ill have to rewire everything cuz everything is twisted together or soldered...

not really sure where this one goes...

trans temp??

little grey wire on the wideband controller?? looks unused ...

clusterfk

XtremeGaGt00 · 10-07-2008, 03:45 PM

we gotta see pics of the back of the gauges..is there any labeling on them AT ALL?...

zukiracer19 · 10-07-2008, 05:38 PM

No labeling, no directions. I have a question, the check valve which way does that go the way u cant blow through is the UIM side ? but batter powers car now... i have 87 in there about a half a tank, i put lucas oil in there octane booster and filled rest of car up with 93 would that work???

zukiracer19 · 10-07-2008, 05:39 PM

btw 2mor is first day im going to try to start it and see if it blows up or not... anyone that knows anything about flashing pcm and doing case scans all that good stuff let me know i wouldnt mind u helping me on the phone... because i cant get ahold of todd and he told me to talk to him when im ready

Mendoza · 10-07-2008, 08:46 PM

Just blow in the check valve. You want the side you can't blow into on the vac side. Just don't do any high boost runs or anything until you get the 87 out of there. Also learn to monitor knock and a/f ratio before even stepping on that peddle.

zukiracer19 · 10-08-2008, 04:59 AM

gauges will be hooked up b4 i start car.. which are already partially done, im just tryin to figure out where that green connector goes..

zukiracer19 · 10-08-2008, 12:23 PM

so can anyone help me step by step over phone on how to flash pcm

KhellendrosxS · 10-08-2008, 03:59 PM

Youre using todds DHP right? Have you signed up for the DHP boards?

Start here, it was written with the 3800 in mind but most of the same principles apply to tuning the 3400.
