Question on fuel pump rewire. Sorry (remember I'm dumb)

Well looking an nz's awesome diagram!!! I just noticed at the front where you cut the wires he has blue/red and blue looped with eachother. Does this mean that you would just splice these two together??? THanks

You don't actually need to loop specific pairs together, it's just easier to draw that way. Twist all four wires together (two blue and two blue/red) and solder then into one big join. That's what I did.

well as expected just did the rewire and now my car doesn't start. I've soldered all the connections so it's not that I have a bad connection somewhere. I got a test light out to check if I was getting power to the 30amp relay and when I touched the connector it sparked and blew the fuse however when I exposed some wire right before the connector the test light lit up like it was supposed to, is this normal??? Also I am using 20amp fuses. If anyone can help it would be appreciated. Also I have checked, double and tripple checked to make sure everything was plugged in right and it is. Thanks.

nevermind, like the title says I'm dumb! lol, I didn't quite understand those three little lines under the black cable when you cut it at the fuel pump. THat means ground Anyways I just started it and test drove it. DAYYYAMMMNNNN is all I have to say! Before doing this I didn't get anything past 40psi of fuel and nothing but maybe 6psi of boost now that I have done this it

a. got me to 50psi or better when boost kicks in
b. full 10psi of boost and I still haven't even run it that hard
c. you guys may call me crazy but it smoothed out my idle incredibly!!!
d. quicker turbo spool

I recommend this mod to anyone! THis is the best thing I've done to my car!!!! Thanks nz for the great diagram!!
