Default MS2 Build help

Im building my MS2 and I have it all done, But im trying to look for a place to run an EBC and Vics Switch.

I have launch control wired to js11.
Joe P`s ign mods through js10.
Fan control through d15 and q7.

I know how to make the circuits for Vics and EBC i just dont know what ports i can use.

Any help ?

Looks like i can move launch control to JS4 and use JS11 for bost control. that solves that issue.

but cant find one for vics.

for launch you can just hook the clutch switch directly to an input, for VICs you need to use a relay like the fan control and put it on a spare output.

Ok vics is easy then, and just so I understand correctly, I can take a jumper from JS7 through a spare port on the db37 to ground and that will trigger vics when set up in Tunerstudios ?

js7, through a 1K resistor to a p2n2222 transitor, back out to a spare port on the db37 then to the vics solenoid, yes.
