Default STS METH INJECTION..once again need help on the install..

Well I bought a new unused STS meth injection kit from armegeddon here on tech. Everything looks great but it has no instructions. The harness for this kit has 4 blade type connectors sticking out of the harness itself....WHY???

Where do you hook this thing up to, the harness is a monstrosity, but well put together.

Does the pump have to be below the tank?? I found the perfect place to mount the pump but it is above the tank.

How does the STS meth kit add meth? Does it add meth per PSI or does it just shoot meth once you are in boost? Doesn't seem like there is any adjustment on this.

Here is a pic of the harness, hopefully you well versed STS guys can help me out.
I've PM'ed quite a few STS peeps already, but no luck and armegedon looks to be out for the day

Most kits on the market are gravity fed pump setups. If this is the case with yours, then the pump needs to be lower than the tank. My pump has two quick connect male terminals on it, so thats where 2 of your "blade" connectors go (they are quick conect female connectors for reference). I assume the other two QC connectors go to a switch/alarm/LED??? Here is a pic where I mounted my setup (which is not an sts kit BTW)....

I'm pretty sure the fuse that came in the kit is a 15amp fuse. Really the easiest thing to do is lay the harness in the car. I thought the same thing about the wiring until I laid it in the car and then it all came together. I'll get my manual tonight and can explain the connections tomorrow if someone doesn't chime in before then. Sorry I couldn't be of more help today.

Real quick, nope no relay, just a fused connection...which is odd isn't it. Nice placement....looks like the ol nose is coming off again on my bird

Ty and red91 thanks for the help...Race prep is going to be scanning me a copy of the instructions so that rocks.

Wiring stuff up is my weakness...so I'd like to play it safe then burn something up

Hey buddy, sorry I'm out of town. Internet is few and far between. The fuse is a 15amp. I thought I sent one, I guess I had it set aside for some reason. Several of the blade terminals are to the pump itself. Notice if you look at the pump you'll see a couple male blades ground and power. Several go to it, if they are getting you some instructions that is awesome... I'm glad your sponser came through... I hope you enjoy your kit and I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

Oh, and the pump is boost referenced like a boost referenced fuel regulator. When the harness senses the switch over from vacuum to boost it triggers the system.

Cool thanks buddy, I'll pull the pump out of the car and see what goes where..I didn't even look at the pump much just mounted it up

I've got the blade fuses in the tool box, so that isn't a problem
