Supply moderate heat to the heat shrink
tubing to seal the connections. A heat-gun or
lighter works well.
When passing through the firewall either
make a hole in a factory grommet or drill
a hole and use a new grommet. If a hole needs
to be drilled, drill a 5 ⁄
16
-inch hole and debur it on
both sides, so that the wiring or tubing does not
get cut as it passes through the hole. For added
protection, wrap the wiring with several layers of
electrical tape in the area where it passes through
the hole. When drilling, check the backside to
make sure that there are no components blocking
the backside of the hole that would be damaged
by drilling.
Route the pyrometer lead-wire up and across
the top of the firewall then down and through
the hole in the firewall. Inside the vehicle, route the
wire to the gauge location. If routing the lead-wire
under the carpet, avoid placing it where the driver’s
feet will rest on the wire. Tie the wire to existing wire
looms and hoses with the cable ties provided.
Position the gauge through the console
or gauge panel. Slip the plastic U-clamp,
provided with the pyrometer, over the studs
on the rear of the gauge and tighten the nuts,
provided.
IMPORTANT: Remove the bare shorting wire from
between the gauge terminals before connecting
the lead-wire to the pyrometer. Attach the spade
connectors to the back of the gauge. Connect the
yellow wire to the (+) terminal and the red wire to
the (-) terminal. If the lead-wires are accidentally
reversed, the gauge will read backwards.
Pull any excess wire through the firewall,
coil it and secure it up under the dash, out
of the way. Do not shorten the lead-wire. Note:
If it is necessary to replace one of the terminal
ends, use a crimp tool only. Do not solder to the
wires.
DYNAFACT BOOST GAUGE
For PowerPack installation, proceed to Step
80.
Locate the rubber hose connecting the
intake manifold on the passenger-side
of the engine to the manifold pressure sensor
mounted on the firewall. Cut through this hose at
a point 3 inches below the sensor. Install the 1 ⁄
8
-
inch hose by 1 ⁄
8
-inch NPT tee fitting and the spring
band clamps, provided, between the cut ends of
the hose as shown in Figure 15 .
Install one 1 ⁄
8
-inch NPT female by 1 ⁄
8
-inch
compression 90-degree fitting onto the
threaded end of the tee. Sparingly apply
pipe sealant tape or paste on the male pipe
threads, and adjust the 90-degree fitting to
point back toward the firewall, as shown
in Figure 15 . Do not allow any sealant to
cover the small hole in the fitting. Do not
over-tighten the plastic fitting.
For Stinger and Stinger-Plus installation,
proceed to Step 81.
Locate the 1 ⁄
8
-inch NPT bung on the Banks
compressor outlet elbow and install the
adapter fitting. Sparingly apply pipe sealant tape
or past on the pipe threads. If you are upgrading
from Stinger or Stinger-Plus, replace the cut
segments of hose between the intake manifold
and the manifold pressure sensor with the single
piece of hose provided.
Install one end of the 1 ⁄
8
-inch diameter
plastic tube provided into the fitting and
tighten the nut. Be sure the plastic tube cannot be
pulled out of the ferrule, but do not over-tighten
the nut.
Route the free end of the tube up and along
the top of the firewall toward the brake
master cylinder assembly. Tie the tube to existing
wires and hoses with the cable ties provided.
Follow the routing of the pyrometer lead-wire
through the firewall.
Route the plastic tube to the DynaFact boost
gauge and cut the tube to the proper length.
Follow the instructions supplied with the gauge
for mounting, lighting and tubing connections.
Connect one wire from each gauge light
to a good ground location under the dash,
such as a metal support bracket where other
wires may already be grounded. Connect the
remaining light wires together and to an 18-gauge
or larger wire, connected to either the headlight
circuit or the dash lighting circuit. The dash
lighting circuit is located on fuse #10 on the fuse
panel at the left side of the dashboard. (Wiring
and terminals for gauge lighting are not supplied
with the PowerPack system.) NOTE: On vehicles
with an automatic transmission, complete the
TransCommand installation before proceeding.
BANKS OTTOMIND ENGINE CALIBRATION
MODULE INSTALLATION
Be certain battery ground cables have been
disconnected.
Locate the engine control unit (ECU) in a
recess in the firewall on the engine side,
between the steering column and the left front
fender. All that will be visible is an elongated
electrical connector and wire loom, surrounded
by a retainer plate attached with two nuts. See
Figure 16 .
Remove the bolt attaching the electrical
connector to the ECU, unplug the
connector, and swing it out of the way.
Remove the two nuts and retaining plate
