Alright I know this topic has been covered alot and I've searched on it for atleast 2weeks now but I have a few questions off my own that I haven't seen like how can you use a ffim without the isc and the csi and another thing I have an automatic and the cable that come from the tranny where would I put that if I bought a ffim I would love to have one those things look great they really make alot of space thanks for everyones replys in advance

lot of custom work. there really is no "bolt-on" upgrade for the ffim although you can order them now that make them closer to that. unless you are running a vpc or map setup you need to keep the isc (even then you should keep it, i did and am happy with how it works) the csi is another thing i kept and after unplugging it and trying to get it to run correctly decided it was another good thing to keep.

my car is my dd and i had a local supra guru do most of the heavy lifting (ok all of it) on my ffim conversion and only after when i started tearing things apart for different items i realized how much work it took. check out my vbgallery for pics and talk to sethron

if you want people to help you, please use some punctuation. its difficult to read.

that being said, it makes it a little more difficult being an auto. you have to fab up something for the line pressure cable. if you unbolt it and unwrap it from the motor you have quite a bit to work with. or, you can use a universal one and make it to length. you just have to be sure that when the throttle is wide open the line pressure cable is at full open too.
