It really is very simple. I did it in my garage at like 2 AM and it took very little effort. Removing the ecu is not necessary at all, you can retrieve the wire by putting tape on the end of something long and slim; run it down, make sure the wire sticks and pull it up into the bay. Easy.

One other thing, make sure the grommet is back in place or you'll get a nice wet surprise the first time you drive in the rain...lol

Thanks for the video Angel it really does make things much clearer. My issue is that my stinger is RHD (from Australia) and there is no room at all to get your hand down and push the grommet back in through the engine bay as it is located on the opposite side . Is it possible to only pull the grommet back into the cabin and feeding the wire through instead of pushing it forward into the engine bay?

Yes that is correct that’s what I did I pulled the grommet in towards the cabin and then slided it to the side a bit and I put the with thru .... my apologies I forgot to mention that on the video it was -25 when I did the video and I was in a rush .... but yes you are correct ....

You can pull it out towards the engine bay aswell. Push it from the inside and pull it from the engine bay.

I haven't done a RHD personally so not sure what the difference are, but worst case run it in the door jamb if you want a quick and easy solution.

 

[Never thought]

@Terry@BMS Is there any issue using the JB4 without fuel wires on map 2 with 91 octane?

 

[Terry@BMS]

It should work as long as you have plugs.

Have some people had issues on map 2 with 91 octane and plugs?

I don’t know if I would call it issues but I use to run 91 on map 2 and the car was running weird when I would WOT it .... swichted to 93 and it ran a lot better ..... I have plugs FYI .... My personal opinion not that it would matter to you but I would not run map 2 on 91 , I would at the least put some octane booster .... Doing that would possibly kill your plugs a lot sooner and maybe you car won’t run right at WOT .... short run most likely nothing will happen the effects you might see on the long run ....you might be fine go with you gut feeling ....

Sometimes map 2 is too much for 91 octane but normally it's fine. If you have any issues record a jb4 log and we can give more useful advice for your specific car.

What about 91 + e85 to hit e30 on map 2?

@Terry@BMS I have a Banks Power Idash gauge that uses the OBD2 port. Can I use an OBD2 splitter and run both the Idash and the JB4 at the same time?

What is the purpose of the 0 map? Does it act as if there is no tuner at all full stock? I would not want to to use a tune all the time that is why I would choose jb4 over an ECU tune if this is true. Thanks I know very little about tuning.

Yes, it's all stock on map 0.

Map0 disables the tune and map4 is the VALET map (2L simulation).

How am I suppose to manage the cables so they aren't in direct contact with the hot parts of the engine? I have 0 wiggle space on my wires.

No matter what I do, I cant get it to not be touching the intake manifold.

Wow the jb4 harness looks pretty good now.
