Meziere install and the relay ignition-on sense wire
Where in the fuse box wiring did everyone tap into for the "relay ignition-on sense" wire?
Step 9 in the instructions says to "Disconnect the factory wiring harness (located on the passenger side firewall) and locate pin number 9 on the plug, indicated on the outside of the plug." but I'm sure they're referring to pre-05.
I read thread in this thread http://forums.bradbarnett.net/showth...eziere+install where it's mentioned to use one of the 2 red wires that enters the fuse box. I dug inside the three wire bundles that enters the right side of the fuse box and found one red wire in the larger, middle bundle. Just thought I'd post here before I go ahead and tap into it...
Thanks!

Is the water pump dificult to install??
To give you an idea of how competent I am, it took me 3 hours to install axle-backs - hahaaha.
If this is much more complicated than axle-backs then I probably wont be able to install the pump and will have to pay somebody.
Sounds like it can be tricky.
I just love how some people assume that you have access to a lift and tons of power tools and can rebuild a tranny - haha..

Can somebody post detailed instructions on how to install this H2O pump.
I already have Steeda UDP installed so I need a shorter belt - that much I do know.
I'm thinking of doing this but my confidence level in my mechanical/electrical abilities is not high. It's also my only car and daily driver so it has to work !!

i tried and failed the first attempt. could not get the F***in bolts to go in at all. put the stocker back. it is **** near impossible and not as easy as the link made it seem and thats coming from someone who has installed 2 superchargers on our engines to date.

BTW, I didn't even drain the coolant from the car. I had the Meziere sitting next to me, and a bucket handy (sitting where the air filter box was). Popped the stock WP out, dropped it in the bucket, and slipped the eH2O pump in. I lost maybe a quart of coolant (most of which was caught in a drip pan under the car).
This water pump is a god-send at the track, especially when combined with a remote switch for the radiator fan. I can cool the car down to under 170* in less than 5 minutes.

If I understand correctly I'll need a shorter belt with the H2O pump since I already have a UDP installed? Or do I need a longer belt?
I think I need a shorter belt but I just want to make sure.
So basically when you take out the stock H2O pump, the coolant fluid will pour out of the hole until you install the the new H2O pump?
I'm beginning to think I can do this myself.
Should I do it?

In the post mentioned above, somebody used a T-tap:
Should I use the T-tap or the add-a-fuse thingamy jig?
