• Remove the two mounting screws for the fuse panel as shown in the picture
• Pull the fuse panel outward to reveal the backside of the fuse panel
• Locate the blue wires (wiper circuit ) in cavity #12
• Route the red 16 gauge wire from the boost controller harness to this location and splice it into the blue wire and shown in the next picture
next using one of the supplied ground lugs ground the black wire here

Using A Long Screwdriver Or An Old Antenna Poke A Hole Through The Grommet At The Firewall As Show In The Picture And Tape The Black 16 Gauge, Blue And Green Wires From The Boost Controller Harness And Pull It Through The Firewall And Into The Engine Bay As Shown.
LOCATE THE TPS CONNECTOR WHICH IS LOCATED ON THE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY AS SHOWN IN THE PIC ABOVE.
ROUTE THE BLUE WIRE FROM THE ELECTRONIC BOOST CONTROLLER TO THIS LOCATION
SPLICE THE BLUE WIRE FROM THE BOOST CONTROLLER HARNESS TO THE MIDDLE PIN OF THE TPS CONNECTOR WHICH IS THE ORANGE/DARK BLUE WIRE.THIS IS THE TPS SIGNAL WIRE.
BE SURE TO SOLDER AND SHRINK TUBE ANY EXPOSED WIRING
IF YOU HAVE A WOTBOX ALREADY INSTALLED IN YOUR CAR YOU CAN WIRE THE BLUE WIRE FROM THE BOOST CONTROLLER TO THE BLUE WIRE ON YOUR WOTBOX HARNESS

Run the black 16 gauge wire from the paired red/black wires from the boost controller to this location. Cut the two solenoid wires as shown in the picture. The black wire will be connected to a suitable ground location (battery ground will work best) .Use the supplied ground lug for this wire. Splice the black 16 gauge wire to blue wire on the boost solenoid.
Using the supplied resistor wire the cut ends of the stock boost solenoid wiring and connect the resistor inline to those two wires. This will eliminate a check engine light from the stock solenoid being unplugged from the pcm

you'll need some vacuum lines... If you are going to leave the WOT Box harness on and install the boost box using a second harness, you'll need to bridge the red / black connection in the wot box harness so that the car can run without the wot box installed.

I'm looking to use the WOT box harness for now. WOT wont help until I have NO2 window switch going right. I just want to do Boost by gear this weekend. Do I need a resistor?

If you leave out the resistor, you'll just have an annoying check engine light. That is all. I ran it like that for weeks. There is no problem with doing that. Just the check engine light. You can add the resistor later when you get around to it.
