Not bad for your first time. No doubt your skills as an electrician helped you out. I hope it works out well for you. Keep reading the nitrous section on ls1tech until you have instant recall on jets, plugs, and troubleshooting.

Why did you use nolox on copper? Just curious, usually its for aluminum wire because dissimilar metals oxidize. Copper doesn't have that issue.

Regardless, have fun and dont blow up your car.

Local 24 for life dawg.

E: and I see why he used it, for the crimps but damm that's overkill.

And nolox sucks, get some deox.. a little more expensive, but its clear and doesn't stain everything.

It's still a copper to aluminum connection though right? Seems unnecessary but w/e floats his boat lol.

Soldered connections are always the best way to go.

noalox is for any copper to aluminium or alu to alu connection. and all my crimps are aluminium, the noid wires where alu, and most of the rest was copper wiring.
its like franks red hot, i put that shit on everything.

yesterday i temporally wire the shit inside the car to test my stuff and had some budys start changing the spark plugs, turned out 6 out of 8 of my plug boots broke off ( metal part staying on plug and the rest of the boot ripped of) and the plugs felt like they had been installed by king kong himself ; DONT NEED A TORQ WRENCH I GOT THIS.
so i programmed the rpm window switch but couldn't do the wot pedal switch as the engine was not running. my car stayed at my friends house and now i have some granatelli wires coming over, had an appointment for an alignment this morning had to cancel it...

so once i get the new wires in il make sure all my stuff is wired correctly then il make it clean and fill my bottle up :)

The plugs do that if anti sieze isn't used. The stock wires only go off and on a couple times before they start coming apart

got my wires today got the car rolling again, it is so dirty im almost ashamed to drive it like that, should clean it tomorow.
with the car now running, i programmed the wot switch and my window switch, now i know they are both hooked up properly. only thing left to do is to clean up my mess and re wire everything to its place. fill up that bottle, called a place today they charge 10$/lbs, seems overpriced i will keep searching.

lol look at my passenger footwell


bonus pic with the van, witch isn't cranking over right now FUCK ME the starter turns and seems to be skiping ''gears''
