Clutch switch bypass/jumper
Someone asked me how this was done so I figured I'll post it here in case someone else is interested. (This is so you can start the car without pushing in the clutch.)
under your dash above the fuse box find the plug that looks like this:
unplug it
make a jumper like this with 2 male spade connectors and a 2-3" piece of wire:
plug it into the end with the female spade connectors like this:

You don't enjoy things being simple to install? There is a difference between cutting 2 wires going to a switch that could be the lead cause of throw-out bearing failure and cutting vital ECU wires. The clutch switch wires are much larger gauge than ecu wires as well. The smaller ecu wires appear to have around 8 strands per wire, they're fragile and easily damaged.
That being said, i like things being removable in short periods of time when needed.
When i first installed megasquirt i cut every necessary wire in my stock ECU harness, when you have to lay on your back with your arms stuck up in your dash you tend to figure something out that is easier to deal with. It now takes less than 5 minutes to remove MS from my car. It would take 10 min to repair the clutch switch wiring, though i have no idea why I would ever want to.

You put the gauge into the inter external boost placement pipe, removing the alterrain outside drain planter, forcing the holes to fit the gauge into place taking all lugnuts out and engenering them back in. Then you place the placement pipe over into the engins referberator, making it go an extra 15 psi.
