Well, if things go well, I should be wiring in the E6X in 2 days on a S5 Turbo II car, any tips for me?



Right now I am planing wiring in the O2 sensor, CLT, MAT, TPS, and Map Sensors. Any real reason to wire in the BAC valve? Or it too much trouble.

I would say just take your time with the sensor conectors that u make, i meesed one of them up and i ended up just buying clips from a junkyard and that worked better than hunting down new ends to make, i didnt mess with the bac because i removed it i say no reason for me to keep it on, also be very careful when wiring the ingnition i acidentally had 12v applied to one of the leading coil wires and it blew somethin inside so i had to send it back and that cost like 200 bucks, so all in all its fairly simple just take your time.

Yeah I don't want to do that. I will take my time doing it.

How about disconnecting the battery when working on the wiring???

i like the bac valve personally, its up to you though, you can get a good idle without

umm yeah i did have it disconnected during all the wiring and when we thought i had a bad coil we tested the coil by apping 12v to it because my ohmmeter was giving a strange reading, so basically im a n00b , but not that much of one

i'd recommend installing a firewall quick disconnect also. Releives some of the wear and tear on ithe harness if you ever have to remove the engine.

It seems like the X is rather buggy on ignition. Maybe this is due to RF interferance? I have seen that written a few times.



How do you gaurd against that besides making sure your plug wires are shielded?

It should come with a manual.

Please ask the dealer if this is so.



Try http://www.haltech.com/

They might have the manual in PDF format.
