On a related note, I'd like to stop by and pick up a MAP hose on my way home from work. Does anyone know what the I.D. for the hose is? Also, I'm assuming I'll need at least 5-6 feet of hose to make it into the car and under the steering wheel (for a '99)? Anyone know how much I'll actually need? Does the hose material matter? Any vacuum hose will do? Thanks |
Thanks.
As for mounting, maybe some thin sheet metal with 4 holes for the MS, and two tabbed holes to join up with the OEM bracket? That might not be too hard... Surely I'm not the first trying to put an MS in a 99 right? |
Can't remember what size I bought but I needed 10' to go from a port just behind the TB to behind the passenger seat. I just took my MS to the store with me to make sure I got the right dia.

I've seen threads about setting up tuner studio that mention selecting firmware etc. Do those threads apply to your ECR Rev? In otherwords, are there any other steps, besides the ones you outlined in your instructions, to get TunerStudio up an running for someone who has just downloaded the software and has not touched any other settings?

I sent you a PM earlier, Dimitris.
For the rest of you who have installed it in a NB, how is fitment under the dash? Should I request an extension for the harness to fit behind the glovebox or is there room under the driver's side dash? |
I'll find out on Saturday... and let you know. I *think* that it will be possible to mount it in the vicinity of the OEM ECU, but have yet to try it. It will require some sort of custom mounting system for sure. I need to confirm that there is enough room as the MS box is maybe twice as thick as the oem unit?

From memory, I think it's at least in the same ballpark if not the same size. I think it should fit based on that picture. And, zip ties = much easier than fabbing an integrating bracket :)

Cool, I just placed an order. Now time to wait. :ugh2:

My ---- is on the way, you are all virgins!!!

Ordered one myself. Looks like we are keeping Reverant plenty busy.

Hustler - I'm going to try to install at MSR this weekend. I can't drive the event but I thought I'd keep my friend who is going company and work on my car...

[IMG]fuuut[/IMG] Good thing Dimitris had a diagram for me. Would not take much longer than cutting them all at once. |
