Download the install manual and software.

Its actually quite easy to wire up.

The things that SUCKS about FJO, is that EVERYTHING is an option.

But they are the BEST.

As mentioned you can get the software from the fjoracing website. How big of a shot are you running? The next thing would be some initial settings for you to try once it is in and you have the software.

I will be doing a 100 shot. Does initial settings come with the software? Any pointers on doing the wiring? Will this be all the safety type electronics i will need?

They have wiring instructions on the FJO site. You will probably need to hook up a few switches like arm, wide open throttle (or use the TPS), and a fuel pressure safety switch. You can also tap the computer from rpms and use the controller as a window switch. Do you have any other mods to the car for the 100 shot? You will not get any initial settings, but I can suggest some. For a 100 shot I would start around 3500 rpms and shut off at 6500 rpms if you have a cam and valve trains mods. I prefer a 50% initial starting and end at 100% on a straight timing based ramp of 1 second. The timing based works good because if you loose traction the spray does not increase like it would on a rpm based ramp. I also suggest the first gear lockout especially if you have a manual.
