no, it's a piece of wire from a spare resistor that i just soldered in place. yea it's a real ghetto job but it works

Can you post the wiring diagram and some instructions? I plan on doing my exhaust and tune the "right" way in the future. But, for now, I'll take the challenge and be ghetto about it. Thanks

Not positive but have you checked the voltage/current running through there. The resistors you have are 1/4 watt which is not very much. If your coming close to 20mA which i wouldnt doubt the resistor could burn. For something I built with LED's i'm using a 15watt resistor pulling about 800mA. I know youll be pulling much less than that, but those 1/4 watt resistors are very weak.

Just something to check if it fails.



Just realized, 1megaohm, you could probably just leave that as an open circuit. 1 megaohm is almost like infinite resistance in that sense.

Thats awesome dude. Hell yeah nice work.

Not to jack the thread, but does anyone know if the timing changes when the CEL turns on because of the no-cats O2 censors?

some people say the car goes into limp mode and the car runs like ass but i've been driving around for a few months with the CEL on and i didn't really feel a difference.
