I read that a few times, and I think you have it correct.With the fuse in, you have the 1700rpm tip-in in race and the 3000rpm tip-in in sport.

You can see it pretty easily if you watch the valves while someone else fools with it. Just make sure you trust them to not run you over or rev it in your face...

It's the 20A micro fuse (yellow).


That fuse is there in my non-npp car. Doesn't seem like i could use it for a bunch of reason's. I'm thinking of just grabbing 12v from the
socket in the right rear hatch.
My 4 cly mode is disabled from the tuner. Which i'm glad!


Just looked at the battery. I can add and wire everything under there!

Good route to take - there's a ton of room back there compared to the front junction area.

I put 12v to pin 4. Pin 1 to ground and then when pin 2 gets ground it closes?

Trying to test before I install it!

Test worked! Now to wire with the Mild to wild!

It will work just fine, no mystery about it. M2W will supply the voltage as needed (or rather, act as the relay).

Other than having to wire it, this method is less of a PITA than messing with relaying a factory-NPP car like we've been working on.

If I just put on an axle back exhaust on a non-NPP car is it going to throw codes?

No, installing an axle-back exhaust system will not cause any codes to be thrown.

I currently don't have a method to detect the number my engine light just came on. Is there any way to determine without going to dealer?

Thanks I'll find out which and let you know. I was told that it wouldn't throw a code before I installed and sure enough my luck. Anyway I'm just trying to figure out how to correct it.

If you have a chance tonight to hit the OnStar button, I'll get you the answer right now.

There is only one code that could be thrown in a normal situation. Out of curiosity, do you have the B&B with their version of the NPP valves, or did you go with the non-valved B&B on an NPP car?

That opens up one other set of codes if you removed the valves from the CCM.

Well, we have to start at the ground and work up, of course.

You had this wired and working correctly before the M2W, right? Just have to confirm.
