Wiring..

And then a small update..

Now I am finished with wiring up the power for the Haltech..I met some challenges in the wiring harness diagram,but with some help from some buddys it got in place

I still miss some sensors (water temp,crank sensor,home signal) to finish up the wiring in the engine bay..

I have also wired up some new 4-quadrat cables in case of powerloss back to the fuel pump.

Got the rabbit back on the wheels today,mounted up the front suspension with KW shocks and all the other new parts..

I need to buy new steering linkage for the steering rack,it was pretty f¸kked upp

I hope to get down the rear suspension tomorrow and renovate it also..Maybe some blasting should do it..

Face down,ass up:p
