Single turbo harness conversion grounding

C. Ludwig · 09-24-2012, 06:39 PM

Quick glance at the schematics says it powers all the turbo solenoids, the BAC, and the OMP. I may have missed something though.

That switched 12V is a great source for power when you install a wideband... Quick easy, and right there... (edit)

I don't *mind* wiring... Just really time consuming... I just went in a hacked mine all to pieces, with just the photo of which plugs were which..

I just don't like redoing a harness (de-pinning entirely) and using shitty quality supplies to wrap it back up... But I'm not baller enough for 4:1 raychem wrap yet, so tiawan crap it is... (for now)

One off question...

Would silicone wire rated for 200*C be high enough temp to use for a harness?

Friend has a hobby connection that can get high qaility, high strand wire (looks like hairs it's so fine) silicone covered wire...

I want to build/redo my whole harness with it soon-ish... Any thoughts?

I really need to start wearing my glasses... I thought that was a reflection from the flash

Ah! Good call Jon. Glad I didn't de pin it yet. I'll trim the wire down but I'll leave enough that it's easy to get t to use for all my aftermarket key on ignition sources

And what I've heard is good for harnesses is that friction tape. Supposed to insulate the wires well. I haven't tried to ind any locally but like everything else, it is available online

Actually, the first tell for me was his talking about grounding the BAC.

***TitaniumTT*** · 09-24-2012, 10:02 PM

I stopped really paying attention to the details after he was talking about removing it

Do you remember what you did with the ISC ground at all? because it is the same one. Worst case I just do whatever you've done but bypassing the ISC plug. I assume you've soldered it somewhere?

I'd tell you I didn't have to solder it or do anything else with it because I didn't remove it, but it looks like things are already sorted out lol.

I'm not Brian but I know what he's going to say and I agree completely: Raychem DR-25.

Or Raceline 150. It has most of the same mil spec ratings, 2:1, it is a bit thicker and doesn't really look as nice as DR-25 but needing quality and price conscious, it's the way to go.
