I would like to see some more nitrous content on here. I am working on my setup for the car currently (as in, over the past 4 or 5 months!!).

Love seeing other setups whether simple or complex so share your ideas/work.

Relocating the battery to the rear passenger cubby hole and the panel pictured below will sit as such. Will have a single terminal strip along the firewall where the battery sat to run my solenoid wiring too. I am still wiring up the panel board for the rear and making one main harness to run through the car. I have to say, I am a fan of the leash electronics boards. Makes wiring the system very easy and extremely clean.

nice job. I LOVE clean wiring jobs. I probably spend more time than I should making sure the ones I do are clean.

I have been using a LOT of Littlefuse products lately. Really hard to beat their blank fuse / relay centers.

I did something similar on my C6Z. Probably could have made it a little more compact but it's definitely better than the rat's nest I had before.

So yesterday I sat everything down in the trunk on the side of the large space where I had it pictured before, and quickly realized that this just wont work here now and decided to move it to the center. This will give me
a lot more room to bundle the wires and pass through somewhere.

The other pic is the loom I have been using that I bought from Racetronix. Really clean durable material. Terminated both ends with heat shrink which makes it look even cleaner when said and done. It is only about 1-2 dollars per 10 ft of it and
I bought the 1/4 and 3/8 loom.

Tapped into the throttle body adapter harness for the tps signal. Used a single pole weather pack connector and ran a 4' lead out of the opposite end where it connects to the vehicle harness. This lead will run to a terminal strip that will be mounted in the original battery location under the hood. I'll terminate all engine bay wiring there (Solenoid, tps, rpm signal), I'll connect the opposite side of the terminal strip to the wiring harness I'm building outside of the car currently to route through it.

Got the tach signal wire ran today. Tapped in by the pcm (red connector, pin 10, white wire on 99-03 cars) and while it was a little tight down there, I feel it was a good spot for it. I did the same method as the tps wire. Cut the wire, and used a single pole weather pack with an extra wire hanging out the opposite end (tachometer side). Routed the wire directly up to the battery location where I tied it off as seen in the pics.
