    For the guys out there where the fuel pump relay is in the passenger side fender, the connector with the red wire that triggers the fuel pump may or may not exist. There's a green plug with a green wire in the passer side kick panel with a yellow stripe that splices out to three. Those three wires trigger the fuel pump. You can connect the green wire from the Holley kit to one of the spliced green wires with the yellow stripe and it will work. Although the Termi X harness already has a relay I still wired in another 40 amp relay just for peace of mind.

    Great Vid Wes. I was wondering and maybe I missed something but did you fully remove your stock ECU, and if so are all of your stock gauges working based on the couple wiring tricks you showed with the Oil sensor etc... How did you wire up your airbags to work? Did you use the AUX inputs/outputs in the TermX? Thanks in advance, Subbed!

    • @Mustang-Geek
      @Mustang-Geek  Před 3 lety +1

      I fully removed the factory ECU. The gauges work completely independently, so that's not a problem. (The ECU has its own temp sensor, that is replaced with one for the Holley Terminator X.) The air bag wiring is separate as well, I but since it was loomed with the MAF harness, I had to pull them apart. I am not currently using any inputs/outputs...yet. Should I add nitrous?

      It's to avoid RF noise. Feel free to connect your power wire directly to the battery terminal. Mine works great with it connected directly to the battery cable at the starter solenoid, but if you want to connect yours directly to the battery, go for it!

    • @bryanleverett2830
      @bryanleverett2830 Před 4 lety

      FixBody Mustangs the battery dampens surges in the electrical system that holley says can damage the ecu. Holley also says “If you don’t hook them up directly to the battery, and you have a ecu fail, don’t even call us”. All the people that do this professionally go bananas ( search “Devon holley” on CZcams) when they see the main power hooked up anywhere but the battery. Now..... can you act like holley are just saying to be jerks and you know better than the company that built it, and it work? Sure. You just did. But if you ecu stops connecting in 2 months and the car won’t start, don’t be mad at holley when you mail them the ecu and they say, “It’s bad. It’s not covered under warranty because it was clearly hit with a power surge”. I’m not saying YOU shouldn’t do it how ever you want. I would say, prob not great to tell everyone watching this to disobey a corner stone of what holley says like 8 times in the instructions (I guess for no reason, lol).

    Great video - thank you for posting it! Did I see this correctly - does the Holley Terminator system use the Mass Air sensor? If not, wouldn't that make it a speed density system?

    • @Mustang-Geek
      @Mustang-Geek  Před 4 lety +2

      Yes, the default setup of the Holley Terminator is "speed density." The MAF is not used. I left the MAF installed because it is an "adapter" from the intake tube to the air filter. I could get a different filter or find a different coupler, but whatever.

      @@Mustang-Geek Got it. It just seems odd that they don't use the Mass Air. That was really the big advantage to these engines originally.

      If you're going to make it a "strip car," I assume this won't be a stock engine. This is EXACTLY what the Terminator X is designed for.

Especially considering that the factory computer's capacitors are on borrowed time, if they haven't failed already. I'd go with the Terminator X without hesitation.
