which wire to tap

I am installing my edge comp. I have pulled off the intake and got down to the wires. There are 4 wires feeding into the pump. What wire is the one you tap? There are 2 in front together and 2 behind it by the engine block, which one do you tap??

Tap the one that is closet to the top of the engine and the head.

Take off the APPS housing (3 13mm bolts), remove the 5 torx screws on the vp44 (you need a special torx bit, Blue Chip or BD will have them), put the new cover on, tighten the screw down until resistance is felt and then tighten 3 more turns, hook up red wire from cover to grey wire on comp, replace APPS housing, go for a drive. They cost about $50 and then $10 for the bit.

If you use the scotchlock provided with the box make sure it is connected good or you will drive around for a month thinking you had the wire tapped but really didnt. Was really happy when I found that out.

Is simple as hell! they are $50 and literally took me 10 min to install. They make a very simple and clean connection. I highly recomend it.
