StAndrew's Build

Its AEM ECU Wire Harness PN 30-2989. I forgot exactly where I got it from but they sell it here:

Its a long lead time as these are built to order. You will have to do the wire splices yourself.

Here is a pre wired and plug n play harness if you dont want to do the wiring (Its a lot of wires and can get confusing but I had a lot of help on mine meaning Ron did all the cutting, spicing, etc...).

Here are a few other links that I found helpfull when researching fuel upgrades, etc...:

$599 isn't too bad for a unit you just literally have to plug in..... Hmmm. I wonder how complicated installation will still be considering I am driving 6 additional injectors instead of manipulating the stock ones. I imagine there is still going to be some splicing to do even if I get the complete year, make and model specific wire harness. Thanks for the help man

 

As far as the splicing goes for 6 additional injectors, Chris and I have that figured out. Took some time reviewing the schematics but I think Chris's is now wired correctly.

 

Haven't blown up yet .

FYI, in your AEM fuel table, setting the injectors at 0 wont turn them off. They will fire at the same rate as the stocks. You need to set the table at -100% to turn them off... Ask me how I know

 

Lol yeah I remember you said it ran like hell when you started it up.
So does the FIC reference the stock injector pulse width through the computer harness or do you still have to manually splice those wires into the stocks? That may be a question for ron

 

Chris, I think next time we meet we need to make notes of all of the wiring that we did for your turbo for future reference. Once you get your turbo installed and the bugs worked out i'm sure others people are sure to follow.

 

I have all the notes, mostly hand written. Let me try to put them together on a word doc or something over the next week or so. If you want to come over or meet at your shop we can do that too. I want to mount the gauges and run the wires and connect them as much as I can between now and Feb.

I think I found a shop to help do the install (figured Id do it at a shop so I dont need a tow for the exhaust work and we can make the cuts to the IC piping as needed).

 

Me likes that idea! I just got done welding my exhaust

Long needed update. Did some side tracking and did some rear suspension work.

I welded in the rear box plates (Trail Gear kit). I left the stock mounting intact as I didnt have time to get the shock relocation done. I had to take a trip to San Diego for work so dropped of the truck to get the rear shocks done at a shop in time for the Big Dogs meet.

Unfortunately the shop, which did a good job on ponethousand's (Paul) truck didnt take time to measure everything out. They left about 1" of uptravel for the shocks. I had to run Big Dogs without any shocks. Not recommended

Pics:

Rear frame plates. Dont mind the welds.





New rear shocks mounted...



Total flex with new shock mounts...





(I zip tied them back on after wheeling)

 

Finished about 4 hours of trail riding at the Big Dog's meet. Did the med to hard trails. Rocks where a challenge but the trees were brutal at times:









No shocks...



Some minor trail damage:





Trees got a little close...





Trees got very close...

 

Good thing you had all that protection!

 

I was surprised how little I used my skids but damn those slides came in handy! There were a few rock and trees where I didnt even try to missed. Just lined the sliders up and let them do the work.

 

Yeah, it really seems sliders come in handy.. I need to invest in some sliders soon. Btw, really enjoy reading over your turbo build. Super interesting!

 

Are they going to fix it chris? I wanted to go so bad!

 

Damn trees are brutal there! Good hanging this weekend.

 

Those shocks look way way to big to be mounted in that setup to begin with

Thanks, hopefully we'll see some fruition soon. Sliders are def a good idea!

Calling them tomorrow...

Hell yeah they were! How was day 2?

Probably.... Clint and I were discussing that this weekend. There is a bit more adjustment available in how he mounted the cross bar but I may have to go down a size. At the stock mount they were too short by 1/4"

They def need to be moved back to open the angle up a bit. They keep catching the e-brake cable causing my rear tires to lock up when I hit a big bump. Should have seen my wheel hoping at 65mph on 664 headed home last night

 

Had a bunch of fun today. Really enjoyed the trail selection.
