Nope, it barely fit around the wire itself, let along the solder joint 
Looks AWESOME Mark. Great job. Good luck with the start-up with a charged battery.

What do you need? I have a huge selection.
I’m all set on the shrink now, but thanks for the compliments :tup:
I don’t care who you are, a parachute just looks bad ass back there!
Car runs!! It was a single wire that was torn in the harness. I simply re-soldered it, and the car fired right up. It was the 12V power wire for the coils, so even though the AEM was sending signal, it wouldn’t fire spark. Here’s the video, she still sounds great 
Cool :tup:
that thing sounds soo loud!!
nice
Haha, I liked the thumbs up and grin at the end
It’s hard to have a conversation while sitting in the passenger seat, ask me how I know lol…
:tup: Awesome Mark.
How do you know…there is no passenger seat…
There is no drivers seat right now either!
It was in last summer he just took it out for all that siqqqq weight savings (not that a carbon fixed back weighs much lol).
I never took out the passenger seat for weight savings. It’s out so that I can work on the car in the garage!
So, now that the car runs, I can move on to the rest of the wiring. First step, pull the dash!
A few bolts here and there, and it’s ready to come out. It was easier for me than most, since it was already out, and I don’t have heat or any vents to get in my way.
So now, I have access to all of the wiring:
Eventually, this pile of wires from the engine bay:
Will all get tucked up in this huge open space:
It’s becoming pretty clear why I am doing this. Not only will the car be easier to work on, look better, and have less to go wrong, look at this harness. The dash harness is universal for all Evos, so it comes pre-wired for power locks, power windows, etc… If you look at the other end of the connector, you can see my car only uses 2 wires, both for the door speaker. The rest of the wiring can all be pulled, traced back to it’s source, and removed there. Simple and light!
Stay tuned for more wire madness!

So, without too much effort, I was able to undo a few bolts, and pop out a few clips, and remove the entire dash harness in one piece!
I marked what clips were being used, and what ones were not being used, so that I can easily remove big sections of wire. If you look here, on this whole set of wires, the only plug I use is for the cigarette lighter, so everything else can go!
Anyone know what this unit here does? It was mounted right under the steering wheel, directly next to the OBD scan port.

Doing a lot of work here…
Yup!
