So I installed the tubes under the car and into the engine bay. What is the easiest way to get the blue wire into the ecu box and connect it with the V4? Furthermore I have no idea if my current harness is already set to have the blue wire plug in or if I need to splice another wire into pin 17??? How do I even know which is pin 17???

As you can tell I am pretty inexperienced. Also, I assume with the boost line I cut the vaccum line below the Y and insert the T line that came with the kit???

Here's a real whopper of a question....on the labonte controller, which plug is 'in' and which is 'out'? If the plugs are facing towards the driver side is the plug near the front the 'in'?

Thanks guys. I'm sure ill have more questions later.

For checking out your harness
http://vishnutuningforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=18

Installation guide

All pretty self explanitory aafter reaading it all.

When it came to the blue wire, I just loomed it with all the meth hoses until I got to the engine bay than split off and ran it down the top of the fire wall zip tied to what looks like a metal ac line and into the ECU box through the rubber gromet with all the other wires.
Hope thaat helps.

I've read through all the install guides. They are fairly generic for someone who literally knows nothing prior to trying this install. Thanks for the tip about getting into the ecu box.

How do I found pin 17? Which pin do I start counting from?

Also neither install guide give any reference to installing the boost line.

The hard plastic boost line is run under the car and terminated on both ends with a section of rubber boost line (included in the kit). All you need to do is push the hard plastic line a couple of inches into the rubber line and it will be secure. On the engine side, Tee this boost line in the boost line that goes to one of the bypass valves. On the other end of the line in the trunk), route to the methanol controller. That's it.

As for the harness update (for meth flow input), the link above should be pretty self explanatory. The numbers are written on the subconnector.

Let me know if you need more info...
