there should be two wire nuts tucked under the dash on the drivers side at the bottom.

WAIT WAIT WAIT


how exactly were you setting the time?? Cause you didn't even realize the box was the turbo timer which is where you'd set the time!!!!!!! (right?)


Do not try to mount it in there UNTIL you get it working, ok?

its ignition activated, not motor activated, just turn the key forward and then turn the key off and if you did it correctly the ignition should stay on for the preset time.

I am idiot. I forgot to readjust my afm after I put in the stock injectors, then decided i didn`t like them and put back in the big injectors. So, my car has been fouling out. I am gonna readjust the afm after the snow stops. I hate Idaho.

On a brighter note, bov, boost controller and boost gauge all working like champs. Car runs great under boost.

yeah, instead of starting the car each time to check it just go to key forward and it should do the same thing as if the car where running.

you should get a wideband O2 installed and then just adjust the boost controller for the AFM setting lol.

or you could just get a better flowing z31 MAF setup and not have to worry about 70's EFI crap.

why spend the money on megasquirt when you can use the later 87-89 ECU and go with nistune and a wideband. and still have about $1k left over to have it dyno tuned.
