Well I got my unit and installed it according the location of the TPS wire and it doesnt work. Maybe I hooked it up wrong but I doubt it as I know how to do wiring... I will trouble shoot it and try a few different wires to see if that does the trick

i got it done by japtrix and i can now turn the car off and leave it off and leave the aem plugged in and then go turn it on later unlike before but sometimes the throttle body noise still stays on but if i turn the key to the ON position a couple times and off then it goes away..

Hey, So your fix works? Which wire exactly did you hook it in too? I installed mine but it doesnt work and im so freakin over unpluggin the POS every time

To be honest. This is COMPLETE BS that we should have to deal with this especially for the amount of money we spent on it. I went with the F/IC because i heard it was superior to the Greddy Emanage Ultimate and this makes me want to switch to one.

which part isnt working about it? when u turn the car off the relay (the box) should make a clicking feel if u hold it in ur hand. i still get the noise sometimes but now i can turn the car on atleast without unplugging the thing.
