    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    I know on the 4cyl all of the interior things like gauges and some random sensor grounds come to a stud on the intake runners, anything you might have removed like that on yours. Sounds like it cause I know for sure that the temp gauge is grounded there.

    Shit I was going to say yesterday it has to be with your battery. Happened to me last time I messed with the SC install. Got done, turned the key and nothing. Searched for everything I could and finally jumped it, bam up and running.

    Was it the wire in the engine bay that gets attached to the SC on the right side?

    Yea by the OBDII port. Just needed grounded. Of course there isn't anywhere to on this thing. The design of this blower sucks. No mounting for stuff or vacuum ports. Still trying to get the vacuum lines good.

    My battery was fine. Crank the motor fine. Left it connected and it died.

    It mounts to the SC with a bracket that should have been attached. The OBDII goes on the top of the bracket and the ground is attached via a bolt.

    Yeah the design isn't the greatest, hence the complete rehaul of its design.

    Yea my 4wd goes to the manifold and the high idle and one of the other random vsv.

    Power steering comes off the evap and another vsv up front.
