Congrats on 7k bill

As for the dash guage pod, I like the SOS, but the CDC looks awesome, it would be even better if the edges blended into the dash better.

Just wondering if it's a good match with my a-pilliar setup, or look at the CDC or Shelby ones.
If that's the case then I say go CDC.

I agree with Leo. It looks more natural.

Robbie, did you wire the 2 boost switch wires together like your diagram suggests?

I'm pretty sure I'll be doing it by the book and use the boost switch. Jed's Roush uses the switch and Brenspeed includes it in the kit, but I read lots of guys just bypass it all together.
I did wire them together, mine is from Brenspeed also and I talked to Dave and that's what he said to do. That diagram is directly from Brenspeed and is a substitute for the KB instructions for '05 and up. I don't have any wires running into the car, it's all self contained in the trunk. Putting the control **** on 50 and wiring the sensor wires together basically gives you 100% output all the time which is what Brenspeed is going for with the set up. There really is no need for the sensor because the computer and tune are controlling the fuel anyways, the BAP just insures that the capacity is there when the computer calls for it. You could run the sensor and wires but its just one more think to do that you don't need and another point for failure. It's not likely but if the sensor ever went out you might end up with a lean condition because it wouldn't be giving the proper signal to the BAP. With the wires tied it will always see 100% demand.

Aww shucks bill, I would have kissed the ground you walk on with that 428 motor in there with cams. Anyways 281 is very good and hopefully be more cautious, we don't want to lose you as a mustanger. Also I doubt you want a stalker following you kissing the ground you walk on. LOL

Ha ha, very funny guys.. let ST give me a little praise!


Robbie, I called up Brenspeed and spoke to Seth and Dave and both said to bypass the pressure switch. They said that I should have gotten that diagram that you posted up with my kit. All I got was some text material telling me verify a buzzing sound that all is working good with the BAP.

Sooo.. this will make life a little easier by not having to run wires all the way to the engine bay.
