NOS again
i just ordered a 5177 nos kit and im kinda nervous. i can afford to break ****. i was thinking of running 75 shot which should be like 50hp at the wheels. im gettin the window switch since i have a m6. should i get the fuel pressure safety switch? i want a install with the least amount of cutting and drilling cuz i gotta get rid of this car in a year. i know they gotta drill holes in the air lid and splice into wires for the window switch and fpss. i was told the fpss was garbage. what should i do for an easy install. i want to cut as few things as possible.
The kit comes with a safety switch that goes on the front of the fuel rail on the drivers side. There is a little schrader valve on the fuel rail...kinda like a tire valve. Take out the schrader valve,have a rag under it as about a 4-5 tablespoons of gas will come out. Screw the safety switch on, get it on tight. Turn on the ignition and check for leaks. No leaks, proceed with intstall.
The safety switch is black, and silver with two places for wire connections. It has a kind of a cone shape to it. It should be with the kit. This is a must for your system. No safety switch could cause serious detonation if your pump fails, even ruin the motor.
