Re: 1g. Wire tuck and nhra battery relocation
What sensors did you end up using for your wire tuck?

Re: 1g. Wire tuck and nhra battery relocation
I just took out the harness and measured every wire. Just cut the unused wires, heat shrink it. And hide it,
Sensor wise, tps, isc, cas, ignition, coil pack, injectors, knock, resistor, maf, just the necessary things to run. Deleted everything. If I have to add something I'll splice in straight from the pigtail of the ecu. You have to examine the wires individually because some of them share the same ground and some of them are connected with each other. Took me about 8 hours total. A ton of heat shrink. Soldering (use flux) and f6 braided

Re: 1g. Wire tuck and nhra battery relocation
Where did you order your braid from? On a side note: do you have a tps pigtail If you run speed density would you just wire that instead of Maf or would you leave the maf wires there incase you wanted to switch back?

Re: 1g. Wire tuck and nhra battery relocation
can the tps be grounded to the chassis or does it need to go back to the ecu as a sensor ground?

Re: 1g. Wire tuck and nhra battery relocation
Do you still have all the lengths of the wires that you recorded?

Re: 1g. Wire tuck and nhra battery relocation
It depends on where you place your stuff. And where you want the harness to come out. A real wire tuck is you put the harness near the shifter cable. You drill a hole, that's why you have to shorten everything. Plus I can mine about 4 inches of way just in case and its tucked in the dash side. Dsm is not a daily so I took my time cause if you mess up you have to do it all over again!
