Yes, I just used a regular butt connector to join the two wires, put some silicone in the ends to weather proof those, and tucked the connector in with the rest of the wires.
I guess if I wanted to I could have pulled the pin and complete length of wire out and not had to put a splice in it anywhere.
Or just swap pin positions and cut the wire down at the A4 harness.

I have the ones that I took out of mine still labeled on the 4L60E Tranny Connector for refrence..
You sure about that..?
I drove a Car that was a M6 Conversion, and it would hold the RPM's thinking it was a Auto when I went to shift Gears.
It was a bitch..kinda cool though in a way cause I had auto-powershift..lol

That sounds like a vaccum leak or a TB issue to me. Electronics shouldnt really hold RPMs all that much but who knows what was going on. Ill find out this week when i finish mine up and get back to you haha. Im not getting a tune right away either so i should have a definite answer.

A lot that effect the idle characteristics too.
When I did a 'rewrite entire' on my car with HPTuners it even changed what some of the VCM pinouts did, some went dead, some needed to be pinned and run to new things, like the reverse lockout, etc.

Completed T-56 Swap I just swapped in a T-56 into my 99 TA. It took two days and a lot of headaches but it is done and that feels great.
My major problem was mounting the master to low, this caused a chain reaction of no clutch-disengagement and the clutch pedal was really low (below the brake). I moved the master cylinder up about 3/8" and everything worked great.
There was some unexpected soldering to be done on the clutch switch and I did not expect that.
I used hp tunders for my flash and everything worked perfectly.

^^What do you mean..
It's the RED PCM Connector, Pin #44.
Do you mean how to Pin it?
If you are converting from a A4.. save the wire that goes to Pin #42 on that Connector, just pop it out and move it over to Pin #44.
How you pop it out is to take the Connector apart, carefully pop off the Red Plastic piece off of the front of it, and lift up on the plastic clip holding the wire in. As you lift on it, pull the wire out. Take a paper clip and push it through the rubber on #44, then carefully insert the wire you just pulled out into that spot.
On the other end of that wire, which should be near where the Auto Plug was, connect that to the Green wire on the Reverse Lockout Connector.
