here is what i got... i still need to pick out a controller but i will prob end up setting the window from 3-5800
http://www.nitrousexpress.com/produc...ils.php?id=888
http://www.nitrousexpress.com/produc...ls.php?id=1357

gonna start with a 100 and see where that takes me...

only thing now is picking out plugs and what to gap and i guess ill find best gap after reading them.

any advice on a plugs? non projected tip? i know the 103 autolite and tr6 seem to be plug of choice by alot..but it is a projected tip.

any other advice would be nice..

Go with a ngk br6ef (3177) or br7ef (3346) non-projected tip. .035 gap should be ok on that size shot.

If it's a 0-5volt reference then you can hook to it with no problems.

On the drivers side unfortunately i can't help you. We have always gone off the passenger side and never really looked at pulling it off the drivers side.

I do know with our window switch you could use the negative side on an injector but i'm not sure with the MSD unit.

no biggie i can always run it from the pass side.. so its the light off green color wire with most the ls based cars?

and for the tps for sure its the 5 volt ref wire?

as far as the coil connector on pass side it has
ground
ignition conrol 2,4,6,8
low ref
ignition 1 voltage

Passenger side main coil plug -- Top row of wires -- Second from the left -- It should be either a dark green or light green w/ white tracer or a turqouise color
