Think I have done everything else lol. AS for map sensor, can I jest tee in the boost gauge? Thanks guys it's so close to starting lol
this is what taz wrote on another post
Word of warning tho, pay close attention to wiring up the fuel pump setup.
You can use the existing car wiring and relay but the stock ECU pulls the relay in on the +ive side and the other side of the relay goes to ground.
Microtech (and just about every other ECU maker) pull the relay in from the negative side so you need to make sure you alter the existing earth of the relay pullin coil (Black) to see switched 12v+ive.
Just connect the existing earth wire (Black) across to the Black/White wire on the same relay. Its a fused and switched power supply.
The existing pullin wire from the relay (Green/Blue) will connect to the GREEN wire on the Microtech.
To test it, jusg switch on ignition and touch the Blue/Yellow wire to earth somewhere.
If all is well the pump will run. Worse case, youll pop a fuse!!
Fix that then join the green Microtech wire to the Blue/Yellow stock wire and your in business.
For some reason, if the Microtech Green wire grounds via the relay coil the pump timer circuitry fries and the pump will not be controlled by the ecu.
Its pretty exxie to get Microtech to repair it as well not to mention about 2 weeks off the road.
This way theres no need to fit extra relays or run extra wiring from the Microtech out to the stock relay.
You then just need to decide how much of the original wiring to use or whether to run and entirely new loom out with all new plugs and so-on.
The latter is my personal choice. Im not a great fan of piggy-backing into the stock EFI looms..just me tho.
This will lengthen the installation by a mile but in the long term is a worthwhile investment in time and some extra money for some new plugs.

ok, so i have spliced the white and black wire on fuel pump relay and joined the black wire to it, but now its just blowing fuses...
all i now need to get it running is sort out the starter motor relay, fuel pump, and wire the alternator and its done....and cv shafts and a wastegate....
any help would be appreciated, if i cant fix it il get a auto sparky in..
