NY Boomslang Wiring Harnesss

Has anyone ever heard of or use a wiring company names boomslang. They make custom wiring harnesses like Rywire for custom set ups for stand alone and factory Ecus. Anyway just looking for some opinions on whether they are reputable.

Contact C. Ludwig here on the forums. He can make you a quality harness. His website is www.lms-efi.com

I wouldn't trust just anybody to build a harness.... "cheap" is normally that way for a reason!!

I did contact C.Ludwig but at the time he wasn't making harnesses when I reached out to him. The company I listed harness cost around $700 that's not that cheap. Just putting my feelers out because to my understanding C.Ludwig was not going to be an available options.

When was the last time you spoke with him? I recall seeing a thread on another forum where he spoke of how he is building his looms now. A QUALITY engine loom is one of the most vital, but often ignored, systems in your car. Think of it as the nervous system of the engine, if it's not on point than it doesn't matter how good of an ECU or engine you have...

$700 is on the cheap(er) side, but I would think it's WAY too expensive for something of unknown construction.

Here at LMS-EFI we're excited by the prospects offered by the new year. That excitement really began in the 4th quarter of last year when we brought in a new partner to the business and a man that will help grow our wire harness production capability. It's no secret we struggled to meet demand in 2015. With Jason coming in to work exclusively with wires, we're certain to provide better turn around times going forward. In addition, Jason was brought in because his attention to detail and ability to produce quality work was a known attribute. I'm not too proud to admit, he's making me step up my own game and the LMS-EFI product as whole a has improved with him coming on board. So, welcome Jason!

Next, we're adding a new level to our harness prep offerings. We'll now break those levels down into 3 general categories. We'll have S-Spec, R-Spec, and R-Spec+. The new level is S-Spec and these harnesses are being offered as a budget conscience alternative. These harnesses will feature PET braided covering instead of the Raychem DR-25. This covering still offers great heat and abrasion resistance, but allows us to take much of the production cost out of the harness itself and offer a harness that has great functionality and a lower price. We'll still be offering the same custom approach with each harness, where each harness is built to work for the particular needs of each customer.

The R-Spec range will now offer some new standard features that will also make it a great value. All R-Spec looms will now use mil-spec M22759/16 Tefzel wire exclusively. In the past, if we were building a Haltech harness for example, we would use Haltech's long flying lead harness and their auto-spec PVC coated wire as the basis for that build. No more. Every R-Spec harness will now be built from scratch using the superior Tefzel wire. This wire has superior properties of heat resistance and conductivity. The value comes in the fact that we can price our Tefzel harness competitively with the Haltech supplied loom and we can now offer an overall better product at a similar cost. All R-Spec looms will now feature concentric twisting technique for superior flexibility and strain relief and will be covered in Raychem DR-25.







The R-Spec+ range will add molded Raychem boots at all applicable junctions instead of the standard ATUM double wall shrink used in the standard R-Spec version.

Lastly, we've made a great investment over the last year or so in our stock of Tefzel wire and Raychem heat shrink products. We're now offering both at competitive pricing. We've added Raychem DR-25 to our website and plan to add molded boots and Tefzel wire at some point. In the mean time, email or call us if you have any harness supply needs.

Boomslang is a big name in the Honda world with aftermarket harnesses. They made it possible to run an ecu with tuning capability in a car that had an ecu that wasn't supported. They have been around a while and would think that they would have many reviews on sites such as Honda-Tech. I have never had dealings with them personally but seem to remember from my Honda days that they were a respected supplier.

Edit: Looks like they make the jumper harness from the Haltech ecu to the factory wiring. C.Ludwig can do that AND make you a new engine bay harness or incorporate them both together so there is no adapter harness. All depends on what you need.

"Boomslang".

The name itself sounds dodgey. So much so that I wouldn't be enticed to go any further. If they can't get an appropriate business name together, what hope do their harnesses have?

If it's a quality product with good support, I wouldn't care. I think sakebomb is a stupid name for a car parts but they offer nice products and support so I will buy/support them.
