Default Oh my god the MS works perfect.

So ive had my Ms for like 6 months now, not working. Couldent fgure out all the problems it had. So finally I traced it down to maybe the db37 connector. So you know what I did? Hardwired the ******* wires from the boomslang right onto the board. I tried to start, was runnning weird. So I went over all my connectoins... damn I switched the two green/white wires. Switch them back and BAM the car idles perfect! I drive it and its running great!

So then im like there is no way the EBC will work too, that would make my day too good. I set my duty cycle to %80 and boost cut at 14 psi, and the EBC works!!!! It hits boost cut in 3rd+ gear but nothing that some tweaking will fix.

I cant bleaive its running after 6 freakin months!!! finally!!!!

in this instance, the serial cable is wired into the factory harness on the other side. it would be easy to cut the side to allow for it. I also did a good job making the mods on the back as flat as possible:
