Default Helppppppppppppp !!!

Could someone please help me with Installing an MSD BAP on my 04 vette ?



I got the wiring from ECS but there is this one bit which the local shop can't figure how to install. I'm sure this is how the unit references boost but I don't want to guess.



Any additional tips would also be appreicated

The second pic is a el cheapo catch can, not related to MSD unit.

Assuming the pressure sensor is internal, you simply connect it to a manifold vac source. Most folks tee in to the brake booster line.

Ohh so it isn't related to the MSD. You know we were kind of guessing it wasn't but weren't sure. For some reason it was in the box. Thanks for clearing that up but where would we hook that line you mentioned ?

Connect one end to MSD port, the other end to a manifold vacuum source (as I said, most tie in to the brake booster line with a tee).

If they can't understand this, you've got bigger problems

I would email MSD or ECS for instructions, or search the forum.

For some reason, MSD doesn't have instructions for this unit on their site...
