the non pnp kits use a harness that is hardwired to the factory harness or used in conjuction with the relay box and harness depending on which way you want to go.

What motor are you running? If its a 4age you want the 42pin diypnp kit. I would also suggest doing the AFM bypass and getting the GM IAT. It gets a huge bottleneck out of your intake system.

Its not near as hard as it looks, but then again I have been repairing electronics for 10+ years. Practice practice practice.

Thats a good question. Ive had several people ask me to do it. My main thing is knowing your setup and what needs to be hooked up etc wiring wise. Then I can flash the base map to it and send it back. Wouldnt be alot seeing as I already have all the equipment. Its just more of a time type of thing.

black top with 1nz coils. would rather run ignition coils sequential rather than waste spark. want to remove idle air control valve and o2 sensor. add a wb o2 innovate lc-1 db. other than than run stock equipment without using another trigger wheel.
thanks
