Yup, the less restriction you have, the more power you get. For turbo that is, N/A cars have to keep some backpressure.Kansei said:

sorry, yesterday was a weather nightmare and I just got off work today, you still need assistance?Myspeed12 said:
there are two blue wires and two red wires for ignition, you want one of the blue wires. You don't want to cut the wire! you want to buy the connections that just splice around the existing wire, no cutting involved. the red qtec wire is your power and black is your ground, just bolt that one to the chassis under the dash somewhere.

first pic is the drop down panel under the steering wheel, self explainitory
second pic is looking up between the steering column and the yellow arrow is the blue wire I want you to use, you can see my tap there. The red arrow is just there to say there is another blue wire towards the back of this bundle.
third pic is where to run the wire to take it to the cutout under the car. this is the driverside firewall grommet. The blue line is the clutch pedal to use for reference, the yellow arrow is the stock msp sub enclosure constant power wire, again for reference, the red circle is circling teh grommet that you are going to push your wire through. You can just force it through with a screw driver or I actually had to pull the grommet into the car and pass a large component through then replaced the grommet, the grey wire is the bundle of wires for my cutout.
Here is a picture of cheep wire splicers that don't require cutting the wire. These will work, but they aren't the greatest ones to get. I get mine from a auto electronics dealer so they are professional grade. This one isn't.
