I am trying to install a killswitch... which wire do I cut from the ECU? I've been told it is the black with pink stripe one but there are two, one with little pink circles along with the stripe, while the other just has the stripe.

Is it okay to cut it where I have marked in the picture or do I need to take ECU out?

Also, I have a 15 AMP switch... is this fine?

I have this done to my car and can double check for you, but I wont see it till monday. All you need to do is do a search here on nico for the FSM. Then look at the wireing diagram. On the diagram look at the fuel pump and it will tell you want wire.

Thanks for the reply... where do I look in the FSM? I'm at the index but I don't see where to go.

Also, does polarity matter?

The fuel pump and relay is off of pin 104, so take the plug off and find that. Or you could just install a switch coming off of the fuel pump fuse. I will be doing some interior work later, so if I get a chance to see what color the wire actually is, I'll let you know.
