switching resistor on/off while driving
#4
i heard the SES light comes on when u turn it on...or is it off?? haha will it do any damage minor/major in the short/long term? cuz if not then i want to do it too...just dont know how to do it..anyone have a good write up to it?

Its pretty straighforward. Just cut the wire and connect it to a flip switch so u can choose when to
have it on or off, i.e. resistor plugged in or not.

and I've used the switch while driving. It will only throw an SES if you leave it on for more than like 5 minutes or turn it on then off a couple times in a row. ECU doesnt seem to like when that happens.
As for the writeup, once I actually some time away from school, maybe I'll do a better writeup with better pictures for those who didnt like the brief explaination

im still wanting to know the reason for doing this? what does it change/fix/improve? i know its something to do with the tranny. does it make shifts quicker?
and what wire is that you taped into?

is it ok to do? or will it wear anything else out?

and what is this ghetto crap?? use some electrical tape!

Is that lamp cord?!!? Please don't tell me you just twisted the wire together. You did solder this or use solderless connectors, right?

Sara says "However, since the transmission controller is programmed to give full line pressure at wide open throttle, this mod just gives rough shifts at part throttle."
This is pure BS because the transmission controller is NOT programmed to give full line pressure at WOT or we wouldn't be getting faster shifts from the DR mod at WOT. We all know that it gives rough shifts at part throttle and thats why I always recommend a WOT switch for this mod.
