Any way to distinguish or just test and see?

Also, I'm going to be contacting you soon to see about getting the low fluid indicator.

Thanks again!

Sorry - I need to follow up...Is the red the positive that goes to the control unit and the white is the ground?

Thanks!

Anyone? I know it's probably a stupid question, but I'd rather just do this once...is the red wire coming from the supplied LED the one that goes to the control unit, and the white is the ground?

Thanks a bunch!

I am 99% sure that you have it correctly, the last kit I installed still had the leds with two white wires but I guess they recently switche to the red and white...you can test it by putting the red in some power source, ie a fuse outlet and grounding the other side...

OK, I have the kit up and running with my little LED's lighting up

I have a custom tune and hit peak boost around 22 psi (sometimes it goes to 22.5). I decided to turn the meth pump on without upping the boost or any changes just to see what happens. Wow - even without a retune for meth, the car is faster.

I do have a question though...I now see full boost 22-22.5 in ALL gears, including 1st! Is this normal?

Thanks

Glad to see it is all working well now, becareful spraying meth without a tune, you will foul your plugs out very quickly do to the excessive rich conditions...you will definitely see an increase in boost across the boards while running meth...

I installed my SafeInjection and solenoid on Tuesday, and was tuned on Wednesday. I have been running just fine since then, until last night.

Most of the night was fine - no light, but then the SI light came on. Now, every time I hit the boost level where the pump starts, the yellow SI warning light "blips" immediately, then goes away. However it does come on again as boost climbs. It comes on sooner and stays on longer in 5th gear. I didn't push it hard after the light started coming on because I don't want to damage anything, but I also don't feel any difference in boost when the light is on, and my boost gauge does not show a drop in pressure.

What would cause this? I seem to be pumping fluid because the level in the tank goes down. Exactly how do I go about testing this to see what is wrong? What should I be looking for? I really don't know where to start.

Thanks!

Ok, so the line from your mbc to your turbo nipple is what you are using? You cut that and place the T-line in it and run a hose to the Safeinjection housing?

Not "T'd" into the SafeInjection unit - It goes into the solenoid. Sorry if I misunderstand what you are saying, but the only thing connected to the SafeInjection unit (black control box) itself should be the red line (in and out) and the wiring.

Like I said, if I misunderstood what you are saying, I'm sorry.

Good luck.
