either that or the knock sensor wiring. I beleive those are the only 2 shielded wires.

first, it would be a whole lot easier if you were to tell us what the wire colors are. Second, I'm with TMS that what it looks like in the pic is the maf sensor wires.

definately not the knock sensor, that's on the other side of the engine.

I'll get a picture of it for you tomorrow. I have it dangling on in my engine bay waiting to be wired.

Looks like the MAF wiring to me because the five colored wires right before it look like the injector resistor box wires.

EDIT: nevermind, I dont think thats it, just get a better pic.

Just get a DSM resistor pack + pigtail and a KA maf plug and it'll be fine. Do you still need that picture? I totally forgot today.

I don't think the ET uses resistor packs, but I could be wrong. If anything I'll give you my resistor pack pigtail cuz I'm gonna use a DSM resistor pack. I'll get you that picture tomorrow.

DET does have a dropping resistor for the injectors. That teeny tiny one in the picture has something to do with the automatic transmission.

I think it's for the resistor pack. It's over there by the MAFS and that looks like too big of a bundle of wires for the MAFS.

If you have a stock resistor pack just use that. I just happen to have gotten a DSM one at the junkyard AND I didn't get the stock one so I'm gonna use it. As for ease, it's pretty hard to find a turbo'd DSM at the junkyard, cuz I rarely see them but if you have better luck go with that. Just pay for shipping and you can have my pigtail. I'm not gonna cut it off anytime soon though(like 2 weeks cuz I'm still hooking up the rest of the engine) so if you don't wanna wait then just look elsewhere.

Yeah, did you also get the pigtail? So you can mate it to your harness. If you got JUST the resistor then you're gonna need to go back and cut it off, leave like 3 inches of wires so you have room to splice.
