How did you run the wiring and Vac line through the fire wall. Did anyone have to drill new holes or alble to use the existing wiring harness outlet.

If you look below your ABS you will see a wiring harness that goes threw the firewall this harness goes to your ECU. If you where to disconnect your Ecu and pull the wiring harness out you can then cut a hole on each side of the rubber fitting that seals the hole that is in the fire wall. You then put the wiring for you boost controller threw the holes and use a zip tie to secure it the rest of the wiring harness, then you feed it right back threw the fire wall and there you go.



Good Luck

Or the easiest way is to go through the steering column boot.
