Default '97 CAS Wires

The white wire is there... just as in DIYautotune instructions.. there isn't a yellow wire though... just yellow/blue. Is that the one I need (I assume yes).

The 97 wiring manual says these are the 4 wires going to the CAS: White/Red, Yellow/Blue, White, Black/Light Green. In yy personal V2.2 wiring guide for the 97 I have this listed:

Pin 24: Primary Tach Input (outer) White 4F
Pin 25: Secondary Tach Input (inner) Yellow/Blue 4G

So yes, I think yellow/blue is the right one

Did you link a pic from your pc? You need to have the pic hosted on the net before anyone else can see it.

Yeah, yellow and blue was it.

Next question. Can I share the NB O2 signal with both ECUs?

I don't think so, but if you're controlling fuel the stock ECU doesn't need it and is too dumb to throw a code...

Before I boost I am... but at the moment I was just looking to run the NB for ***** and grins. I have to wait until closing on the house before I am allowed to spend any money per my mortgage brokers instructions. Once we close the wife is getting a new car, I'm getting a bronco, THEN the miata get's boost. MS is in and working at the moment... I am not controlling the engine with it yet, but all the inputs are setup except MAP (havn't run the vacuum line yet). I'm hooking it up to the fuel and spark this weekend (with switches) so it's ready to rock and roll when I get the WBO2.
