Well don't f*ing touch it. Your trying to tap into wires vital to your engine running properly for what? So you can inaccurately see your A:F on a tiny gauge and still not be able to do anything about it. Leave it alone. If you want accurate A:F reading get K-Pro.

If your on acid i'm sure you could look at it for hours. But yea, only a ricer would install one and odd's are you don't even have anything that would effect your a/f ratio.

If you have a typeS then you have a wideband. get K-pro and you'll read ACCURATE readings as opposed to the jank narrowbands that are only there for lights.

i don't see how you can tune it accurately when they are innacurate. A/F is something that you don't want to innacurately tune.

He is just talking out his *** now. If you can't even buy Kpro what would you be trying to tune? How do you plan on changing any of the maps?

its quite easy you just mess with resistance in the air intake temp sensor resistors are really really cheap and yeah they may not do too much but u can advance ur timing and my friends uncle tunes cars all day everyday i just wanna know what wire to tap into

There's a reason people telling you what wires to tap for a reason. Since it sounds like your just dying to expletive up your car for cheap, I suggest you search and download the Helm's srvice manual. Don't worry, that's free too.

*LIGHT SHOW* Return you gauge to auto zone, and save up for K-Pro.

wow...dicks. you hook the purple signal wire into the wire from your o2 sensor as long as you have a stock narrowband sensor, which you more than likely do, there ya go man, oh just because someone has a narrowband gauge, doesnt automatically mean they want to use it to tune, and not everyone has the money for a wideband
