Yes sir, let me dig up the picture but it is to one of the connectors to the ECU. If you get on the footwell on the passeger side, you will easily see the three connectors. Let me dig up the pic of the cable connected.

Somehow this is the first time I've seen these. I wonder if these could be wired up to the factory ecu in the same manner as the flex fuel sensor is in order to trigger ECUTek to switch maps/retard timing/cut boost when needed? I don't have an immediate need for it, but it could be cool for some of the guys that are pushing the limits.

Here is the thread where I took a picture of the wire to grab the RPM signal from. My AEM Failsafe is still working perfectly, so let me know if you have any other questions. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showt...t=28800&page=4

I don't think their kit comes with a vacuum manifold, but you can ask Tony. I bought mine from Fast-Turbo. I fed the vacuum line through the firewall between the fender and the brake booster. I think you can see the rubber grommet I fed it through in my photo of the vacuum manifold.

Not the god, haha. Just isn't my first rodeo on turboing a non turbo car or installing just about any part you can install on a car. I have done quite a few gauge installs for local guys as well.
