My plug-n-play's are great, I had no interest in sacrificing OEM wiring.

I am running the ZZP coldside that relocates the sensor away from the AC compressor as well.

I loaded my own files, the code that came with the kit was never used. No dealer ever touched this kit or my tune file. It would be like buying it brand new except it has 6-7k miles on it. The flash file # is still virgin.

Does anybody have the part number of the original wire harness. I'm think about getting a new wire harness to use with this new adapter to eliminate the ****ty job dealer made and to the intermediate turbo loss that I get.

Thanks,
Traketo

Just had the new harness installed with the crate engine depot connectors.

The car has stopped surging and it now feels dead solid.

Talked to the GM dealer to have it done and they couldn't come up with a price, then wanted at least $400 to put it on.

I've recently found a new shot in Santa Monica, Q automotive on Lincoln, that does great repair work and lives to their estimate.

They quoted $236 and though it took them twice the time, they lived to their quote.

It's so nice to get rid of the soldered taped, and stuck together gms1 spliced connectors.

Thank you crate engine depot and especially Tom.

IMO

Your kiddin? What was your car doing to make you change out the entire harness and add the plug and play connectors?? And previously....your connections were soldiered?? How much did everything end up costing you then?

Absolutely. If his was acting anything like mine...this "might" be a possible fix. I honestly figured that having the connections soldiered would have been fine though....
