Daddys babys getting a new EMS

[QWIKSTRIKE]

Well you need to make some terminations eventually. You've got 3 options I can think of.

1. Figure out how to get you old connectors onto your new wires
2. Get new stock connectors
3. Get new sensors with new connectors

1 isn't easy and 2+3 aren't cheap, all of them require some skill from the person doing the work. Seems to me figgie and I have had this discussion beofre and "agreed to disagree" as it were. I'll be interested to hear QWIK's methods and results.

All great options to look at Glen. I see you are over here posting also. I'll let you know my plans only if you teach me to get my 60ft under 2.0 which is my best so far. Seriously I am scrapping my coils, and igniter in leui of LS-2 coils that have igniters built into them. I am waiting on my friend the great chevyeater to get me the plugs going to the LS2 coil harness from the flying loom harness side! I have a new AEM 3.5 bar map sensor, which a plug must be made for, and a new air temp sensors and plug. The water temp will be my stock ECU plug wired into the flying lead, and I have no knock sensor usage with this ECU. My cold start, CPS, TPS, injector plugs, and all other relevant sensor plugs will be wired to the flying loom ends from the stock harness unless they are defective.:icon_bigg

All the ends that I will use from the stock harness will be cut soldered together, and shrink wrapped for a professional neat moisture resistant connection. Haltech has a connector kit for100.00 that I can buy, but I must see if anything in iti s relevant to what I need.

You definantly have the power to get a good 60', if your car is lowered that will hurt you, but other than that all you need is good tires and lots of practice.

Brian definantly knows his stuff so you are in good hands there.

If I were in your shoes I would try crimping brand new pins onto the new wires and just reuse the plastic part of the stock connectors, but I'm not sure how easy those pins will be to find. Luckily your list of connectors to reuse is short, but I think splicing/soldering a "pigtail" of the old wire onto the end of your new wire sounds less relaible than the stock harness (at least it would be with my soldering skills). Solder makes a good electrical connection, but isn't a good mechanical connection, it is brittle and can crack from vibration or strain from pulling the connectors off. However people do it all the time and it works, just my .02

The injectors plugs are new so it should be fine I may get a new tps switch also so that will be fine. My soldering and shrink wrapping skills are enough to make every thing work flawless

how about crimping...I would forgo soldering in the area that the wires attach to the pins. Soldering will cause a stress point at the soldering area.

Also to add..

NippoDenso uses similiar electrical pins that Bosch does so they might be made to work. Of course if push comes to shove, Bosch sensors are all drop in replacements (Metric) and that is what most Aussie EMS companies use (Wolf, Autronic, Motec, EFI Technologies etc).

Thanks for the info Figgie. I can also crimp, and heat shrink the connectors. That is what I will do then.

Anything new on this?
I hate to bring up old post but, im looking into maybe a standalone system.
The more i look at wolf the more i am leaning towards getting it i know i will either get AΣM singer or wolf V500
let me know how this turned out.
