Carl48 did you you wire the sensor on with key or switched power. That way you can turn it on or off.

Turbo is on, p/s intercooler is in, custom 3" intercooler tube are in, 3rd gen intake elbow is in. Road tested unit. Its way better than my old set up. But does not seem to pull hard. I think next step is more fuel. I got my 3200 spring, i'll be butting that in. What next.
