Next Project
 
Ok...since I've been bit by the bug...it's time to move on to bigger and better things.
However...I want to get a few things situtated first.
I have a pair of autometers that I'd like to install. An A/F & a Volt gauge. Why? Because I pulled them off the Eclipse and are taking up space inside my house. So, I already know how to install the Voltometer, but not sure what wire to splice for the P5. Thanks (as usual) in advance!!

It was a just a though none the less.
Sooooo to answer my ?uestion. What wire gets spliced??

Bartizek January-31st-2005 02:39 PM

How would you use your heater/AC if you did that?

centsless January-31st-2005 02:43 PM

shouldn't any constant HOT work for a voltmeter, all its doing is reading the value. So, i would think the primary fuse box, or even the battery positive.

Not sure though, never have installed a voltmeter.

JDM-P5 January-31st-2005 02:47 PM

I was just thinking..if I go w/a SC kit...I won't have the use of my AC anyway.

I'm not worried about the Voltometer!! I just need to know WHAT WIRE NEEDS TO BE SPLICED so I can hook up the Air Fuel monitor.

That is all.
Thank you, good day sir!

What's an SC kit? Super....climate?

JDM-P5 January-31st-2005 03:31 PM

Teh SupaCharga...lol.
If I get a WOMP super charger kit...I will have no need for AC...but...I agree w/the above post...I'm gonna keep it simple and NOT do that.

just because you have no ac you still have temperature control...just not colder than outside. I still use my fan sometimes....if it's raining.

Hmmm...one of these days when I see my car again I too, shall have a Voltmeter installation. I'll probably be the only person on the planet with a maize-colored Katzkin leather-wrapped dual AutoMeter gauge pod.

But I like to be different. And by different I mean special, but not like "bang my head on the ground" kind of special. Although I do drive the short bus.

Am I rambling again?

I love my MP5!!!

He doesn't like the buildup of condensation on the interior of his windows.

Good point...advice taken.

Bartizek January-31st-2005 04:04 PM

wait wouldn't sucking in wet/dense air make his windows condensate more?
