Default AEM F/IC Harness

I don't feel like searching, so you can go search your own _______.

I'm contemplating on doing the harness myself to save myself $300, however I'd want to do it right, which means I'd want to actually use connectors and pins, vs just tapping wires and having a mess. Basically create a mimic of the harness Dezod sells (no clue who else sells it, I don't see it on your site Todd haha). I have plenty of experience with electrical circuits, and I know this will be a pain in the ___.

My question, regards the actual connectors them self. Where the hell can I buy those connectors? lol.

Also, to make things easier, does anyone have a wiring diagram? I know the F/IC directions had stuff in it, but I'd MUCH rather use a wiring diagram, since I'm familiar with reading them.

Good luck unless you're planning on spending BIG $$ to get quantities of these connectors.

Figures, lol. So it's either get the harness, or have a mess?

I just wired it directly in. Spliced and soldered every connection by hand. Took my about 4 hours, but I was taking my time, double and triple checking every single connection. IMO, it was definitely worth the $300 since I was able to spend that money on other parts for the turbo.

Not $300 worth. If the harness was maybe $100 or less, maybe. But spending $300 vs. 4ish hours of easy work...I think I'll get out my wire strippers and soldering gun. Doing this isn't for everyone as you do need a somewhat steady hand and someone who is colorblind may have problems finding the right wires , but I am a DIY'er and the monitary savings is well worth the time spent wiring it up myself.
