Raceland cutout

[02Steve15]

Anyone got one and want to get rid of it?

 

[AWE Daniel]

lol you are changing your mind on this exhaust thing ever few hours huh? I would buy it right from raceland, very inexpensive and install is a breeze, I spent 140$ total on mine.

 

[02Steve15]

^ yeah lol, i think im set on a decision now lol...i just wanted to see if anyone didn't want theirs before i go buy it from raceland

 

[AWE Daniel]

I dunno man its pretty cheap

I'm just a little confused on the wiring concept of it. I'm going to splice the wires but do I just wrap the bare wire around the + of the battery and the same thing with whatever I choose to be the ground?

 

[AWE Daniel]

Just quick connect it to your cig lighter, its way easy.

Yep, hook the red to positive and the black to ground. You can get these to make it look cleaner.

 

[02Steve15]

^^ exactly what I was looking for. What are they wire receptors? I think that's what they're called

 

[shadow11]

Idk exactly what they are called. They sell em at autozone or any place like that.

Just fyi the raceland will come with a cig lighter plug, you'll have to cut that off, and the wires are prob too thin for that type of connector.

 

[KGBIGCOUNTRY]

Just use connections the same for audio amps. I still havent gotten the one Shadow sold me put in...

 

[02Steve15]

I'll probably go to pepboys and see what they have

 

[AWE Daniel]

I really wanna stress that the wires coming off the cutout are small, must be 14 or 16 ga, you will have a hard time tying that to one of those connectors. I doubled the wire up just to get it to fit in the quickconnector better.

 

[02Steve15]

how did you double it up, where did you get the other wire from?

 

[AWE Daniel]

I folded the wire back on itself and stuffed that into the quick connect, I have wires running to my driving lights and stuff, but your best bet is to tap it in to the cig lighter behind the radio bezel, that way its only got power when your key is in.

 

[02Steve15]

Then I'm gonna have to break through the firewall though. I usually use the cig lighter for my ipod in order to charge it anyway..it would get annoying to keep switching them out

 

[AWE Daniel]

Going through the firewall is cake Ill take some pics tomorrow for you, and I mean you should hardwire the cutout into the wires going into the cig lighter.

 

[02Steve15]

Oh haha I can't do that ****, wouldn't i need a soldering iron for that?

 

[AWE Daniel]

no just quick-connects its easy bro, cake!

The hardest thing to do is to run the wire down the underside of the truck to get to the engine bay, and even that is easy!

 

[02Steve15]

Ok, throw me some photos whenever you get to it, no rush. I will still be able to use the cig lighter from inside the cab right?
