I have no idea about using a bump switch. I really don’t I tend to use one, but I’ll probably change mind later lol.

I’ve found that it’s much easier to let the ecu control everything possible - less things to go wrong,and changes to settings are very quick. Also a learning curve and it’s easier to learn with less things going through the ECU.

No matter, can’t wait to see it running!

I ]t was informative. I watched it & would have watched another if you did more.
Thanks. I have no problem doing it if it gets a discussion going or if anyone has something in particular they'd like to see.

With a bump you need to send the transbrake signal thru the ecu so the ecu can pwm the TB solinoid when you press the bump button. I have nothing for my ecu to do when I press the trans brake so no need to waste an output on it.

Running out of things to do without the intake. Hopefully I get it back soon.
I was trying to mess around with the OE radio bezel and just said screw it and made this piece. The right outlet is a USB port that will go to the ECU. The right outlet is two USB ports for charging.

Also got the MAP sensor line into the car using a push connect bulkhead fitting. Nice and clean.
