PFC & HKS ignition

well.... lol I have no clue how to install the ECU or the ignition, does anyone know a good place or site that gives information on the installation of these?

There is a PFC forum on this board with a FAQ. Search for "Twin Power installation".

The twin power install should be plug-and-play.

We need to have a video tutorial on effective searching....

Your Twin Power can have one of two harnesses. The one that comes with the unit itself requires you to manually wire in to the OEM ignition wiring harness. Directions and correct wiring can be found by searching. The other is a simple plug & play harness that intercept connects between the main harness and the ignition (coil) harness. This harness can be bought on ebay for around $15.

There are a few PFC install write-ups. Search the forum and use google. I found one within a few minutes when I installed mine.

lol yea def fail on my part! but hey I went on the PFC board and also made a newb of my self hahahah, there is a nice PDF on that board that gives a full explaination of the PFC and all the different features, also shows what wires I need to cut in reguards to the emissions.

the HKS is used so it already has the harness wired in so that is kinda nice, HKS install seems really simple

The PFC is also used so I have to initialize it, now I was reading there might be a base map for a intercooler, intake, downpipe. is that true?

Same setup I have on my car, minus the v-mount going on this weekend. Very easy install, and probably the best bolt ons to do to an FD.

The base map is good for intercooler, intake, downpipe, correct.
