Plugs on factory loom

[sweetr33]

Hey guys, im building up an Rb25 which has a greddy forward facing plenum, was disconnecting stuff off my standard motor whilst trying to take it out when i thought to myself about all the damn plugs that are on the factory plenum. If im running a power fc, with the greddy plenum, what do i do with all these excess plugs? Im totally confused. Is the simple answer.....dont use them? i just thought that would look rather untidy?

anyone??

What do you actually mean by "plugs"

[sweetr33]

basically, on the factory plenum there are a heap of sensors etc, on the greddy plenum there isnt, if imnot using the standard computer for example the power fc, do i still need all these sensors to be connected?

Ah! I see....yes basicly you still need them, the PFC used the stock sensors whereas with some other ECU's you might have to put in their brand of sensor. Things like the AAC valve which bolts on the rear of the Plenum is not provided for on the GReddy but you still need it to control idle etc. You need to identify what each hose,plug and sensor on the stock plenum does then you can decide what to do with it on the GReddy. If you don't really know what everything in the engine bay is, what it does and how it fits in with the rest you should really do some research and find out Befor making major changes such as the plenum

:werd:

those sensors are kind of important. You need to be able to hook them or vital things will not work - probably causing damage to whatever setup you are going for!

very true, new motor isnt worth destroying due to some inexperience on my behalf.
