Go to this site. It seems to be easier.

You only have to cut one wire in your trunk and hook everything up is just time consuming. It cost me $25.00 for all the supplies and I bought extras, in case.
Keep on asking.

well ive already completed the rewire and it was working great except that there was a whining sound coming from the fuel pump which you would never notice at driving speed or with music on but at idle it was pretty friken loud. thats why i was interested in the new rewiring technique. and its weird... our cars are supposed to be fine with 14psi of boost right without any other fuel system mods or anything but when i added the rewire it really helped with the studdering at high rpms

Same with mine. Don't know why but it looses power. Not no more. Good job.

Oh, and the wound is normal with a higher flowing fuel pump.

So why does runnin a new wire help. the bat only has 12v right? or is it because the alternator kicks it up to 13.6 to 14v during operation? I have the denso race pump...the hot wire kit Dynamic Racing sells is this all it is?

the wire that is used to power the fuel pump is 16 gauge and by time it gets to the pump the most you get is 12v but as you build boost it quickly drops down to 10v . doing the rewire you would use at least a 10 gauge most people go with 8 or 4 so it would always be at 14v

Also, you are bypassing the relay. This helps in decreasing the power loss.
