any chance you could take a pic of what your talking about?
why is it so special? does it have both options in the groove patterns?
my connectors are completely different form each other.


the powerwire adds fuel at WOT so your engine doesn't run lean like it tends to do if you watch your A/F ratio while you slam the hammer down.

what it actually does it trick the PCM to think the incoming air temp is about 20* cooler than it actually is so it adds a bit more fuel. alot of 3rd gen guys run them and most say with headers they run lean and the PW helps it balance better.

What are you using as a tuner on it and what other mods do you have? If your getting custom tunes from a tune writer the power wire wont be needed becuase the files are made to acomplish what that already does.

I was talking about tweaking my trans points.

I run the 91 tune and wen i get my t-stat in and pw in ill change it to 93 just so it wont run lean.
