A. The Ignition/Boost Control unit has been prewired
for installation convenience. Installation is a
simple matter of disconnecting the stock con-
nector at the ignition coil and plugging in the new
adapter. Then plug the stock connector into the
adapter. (See
Fig. 12-a.)
B. The next step is to provide a good ground for the
black wire and mounting the box in as cool a
place as possible under the hood. The box
should be mounted with the aluminum cover on
the bottom.
C. Connect the vent to manifold pressure by splic-
ing into the FMU manifold pressure line with the
supplied 5/32" hose and TEE.
D. Route the Ignition/Boost Control wires through
the firewall from the interior side. Mount the
knob in an easily accessible place.
E. Connect the wires to the plastic oval wiring
connector on the Ignition/Boost Control unit
using the snap-on connector supplied in the
Ignition/Boost Control kit.
NOTE: The wiring to the Boost/Control knob
can be matched to either of the corre-
sponding wires in the boost retard
connector.
