Default Anyone in SE MI install MS3?

I am going to order a Rev MS3 basic and after searching "ms3 basic installs" it looks like it could be a bit of a task on my car. I have a FMII LINK now, in a car that has had an NB interior swap. (previous owner)

It might go easy, but then again I am living with another person project. So far everything has been good on the car, but having a local that has "been there done that" would be a huge relief.

If not, i'll just take lots of pics and rely on the massive well of knowledge here.



Thanks again MT for being so great.

Literally the only problem I had was mounting mine, and now his MS3s are in a smaller case even so that may not be a issue. If you've already got a wideband installed, you can even skip that step that I needed. All I needed to do was wire in the IAT (2 wires to solder, I just wired it up where the stock IAT was), power and signal to the wideband (2 more wires or maybe 3 with a ground), and run a vacuum line for the MAP sensor. Would have taken about 30 minutes if I didn't have trouble mounting it. As it was I reverted everything back to stock in <10 minutes since I needed to leave.

It's called plug-n-play for a reason.

I like the sound of this... I should be pulling the trigger soon on the MS3 I emailed about a toughbook laptop so I have a dedicated PC for tuning as well. I am looking forward to unlocking the potential of this car.

Yours will probably be different, NBs came with a factory iat but Reverant will give you instructions.
