Just for the sake of asking, what's the chances it'll melt the fuse box?

The turbo...since it produces a lot of heat.

it won't, you don't have to worry about that.
Damn Paul...looks great! But I wouldn't expect any less. :laugh:
I'll have to get a test ride at the AFN to feel the improvement over last years spin around the fairgrounds.

There is something wrong with your Contour. It is just too clean. :laugh:
Very nice though!
I just have one, maybe really stupid question. My fuse box does not equal your fuse box.

It it a late 99/00 fuse box.
The design changed from yellow writing to all black sometime in 99

Did you upgrade the big 3 and swap the box?
wow that is pretty familar .... I'm doing the same thing at the moment but its slow going because the storage unit I have the car in isn't heated.
I don't believe how clean that engine bay is either ...

Thanks!
I plan to post pictures as I work my way through the install...hopefully, I should be posting something new every weekend from here on in with everything done by the end of the month.I read the link and thanks for the advice...the battery ground is obviously done, but the other two haven't been, yet. I'm on my second distribution block and they are sending me a third this week...Tsunami reliability has been a little poor...the first block never lit up, the second one did, except for one of the status leds, so now they are testing this one before sending it out...

I thought about the heat issues and went with the turbo blanket and had all the hot pipes wrapped by Joey...no worries

That is pretty cool about the similarities...I ran the power cable through the subframe connector and then crossed over at the rear subframe following the factory routing...I can post pictures from underneath if you want ideas.TourEnvy

Hey Paul, Is this a kit you bought or did you piece it together. Im not really familiar with two pieces: the Distribution block and I guessing is a cut off in the back before it goes to the battery? What is the two items and what are they for?
