Default Where are you hiding BS3???

For those of you who actually drive your car daily or atleast every once in a while, where are you hiding the BS3 box? It obviously needs to be easily accessible so I can plug in my computer, but where are you putting the box!?

Also i would love to see what your engine bay looks like with the BS3 harness all wired up!

Also what kind of gauge are you using to view your A/F through BS3?

On the driverside kick panel dude.. Duh!! Rip all that crap thats in there out. Biggest headache your going to have is finding out all the bigstuff3 wiring is wayyyyyyyyyyyyy long.

I am not going to cut or redo anything till I am tuned so I dont have to chase down crap.

Gauge? Mount a laptop in your car and log. Please tell me you did not waste the money on internal logging? when you have a laptop that can do the work>!!!

I just got off the phone with Murillo Motorsports and I am going to send it over to them to cut everything down and redo the wiring on the car. Cost about $250-$300 and save me time of chasing stuff down.

DAI is a very useful option for the dragstrip. Some classes do not allow a computer to be hooked in during a run.

You are arguing with a guy who's car hasn't ran in 2 years.

It will only datalog for 30 secs or so. I have my trigger to come in at 75% throttle. I do my burnout, then activate, waiting for the trigger. No heater box in my car, mounted the ECM on the block off plate. Plenty of wire! The AFR gauge is a huge laptop screen.
