yes, you have to remove the glove box first, the ecu doesnt sit flat like that, it sits vertical, yes i am working on getting more out.. i didnt expect them to sell so fast, so the red arrow connector is on the top, you splice in power from the bottom

well im not sure how the mil eliminator gets hooked up, i believe it gets spliced into the oxygen sensor wire directly so it sits outside, mine stays in the ecu compartment

What kind of chip do you use to simulate o2 readings?

my o2 simulator is a circuit that sends the proper voltage to the ecu that simulates what the oxygen sensor would normally give, but if you have a test pipe, or different header, it will throw that signal off, and give you a check engine light, this just prevents the check engine light and makes the ecu think that your cat is working properly

yes you can, but the parts list comes up to around $20 anyways with all sorts of extra parts left over, and thats not including all the tools you have to buy
this way, you have no waste, and not have to spend 4 hours figuring out the circuit like i did...
