take the connector off the boost sensor. Plug the boost sensor into fcd... plug other end of fcd into plug. DONE.

If you're asking questions like these, may I suggest you do some research, or leave it to professionals when installing. An FCON comes with a boost sensor, and there is no need for an FCD.

if your fcd is series 5, however, i will buy it

A fcon actually also comes with its own fcd. Most are missing the pressure sensor or fcd, or both. Dont run it with out all the components. I believe the pressure sensor is about 250$ from HKS, and the fcd is 90$ if you ever have to replace one of them.

The fcon should have its own fcd. If it does not then install yours.

Know my ****? I have an fcd sitting in front of me that plugs right in, dipshit. If you bought a universal FCD, then that serves you right.

Enjoy your blown motor and/or fried electronics.

No what he's saying is there is a module available for the f-con, that should have came with it, called an fcd. It serves the same purpose... and its a plug-and-play scenario.

oh i see drox so i have to wire the FCD to the stock ecu harness right? thats what i was wondering because i was thinking that if the f-con came with its own pressure sensor then the stock sensor would no longer function! cuz i thought if the FCD was installed on the stock ecu harness then it would only work on the stock sensor. now everything seems to be coming together. if im doin anything wrong plz post! lol thanks for the help!
