EU install questions - 98 max
I have started the install, but I was looking to get some answers from the guys that have installed the EU on a 4th gen.
I have read through the DandyMax Guide a few times, but it doesn't describe where the taps/cuts were made in the ECU harness. Reading through the install guide for the S/V-AFC II on vqpower.com, I saw that all of the wires were installed where the plastic cover was, right at the ECU connector. I was able to do the same for all of the power, grounds, and sensors but I don't think I have enough room there for both the injector and ignition coil connections (using butt splices - simpler for me). Now for the questions:

Now for the questions:
- Where did you cut the wires for the injectors and ignition coils?
- Did you trace them to the firewall, the driver's side, or were you able to do it at the ECU connector?
- Can it be connected somewhere easier than under the dash?
- Did you remove/disconnect anything to get at the harness?
- Since I have the sensors, power, and grounds connected, could I connect the EU and test it/update the firmware? (I'm the 3rd owner.)
