Might have found a wiring problem which would be my fault.

For the trailing coils i wired them to this
http://www.tuningtechnology.net/Down...7_FC_Stock.pdf

However the sprint re manual has ignition 2 to the pink wire and ignition 3 to the white wire. So i could have messed that up but the problem is i dont know which one is correct. One is from haltech and the other is from a haltech dealer so i would assume they would both be right, obviously not.

I posted this in the haltech section so we will see if i get an answer.

Fc Trailing coil has a bullet connector that you can take the tach signal off of.yellow,with a stripe ,I think.
That is where I got my PS1000 reading signal.

Sorry, what I meant to ask is if there was a shop with a dyno local to you? It would be nice to know that I had another option rather than going east.

Styx- this is the only picture i could find if the trailing coils right now and i dont have the car with me to take a new one. There is a black wire sticking out to the left that has a connector on it. Is that the one you are talking about? Right now i have the yellow with blue stripe wire of the body harness to the yellow wire of the t coils, exactly the way it was stock.

You mean the brake pedals feel squishy? Changing the master cylinder would help, there are many who swapped in either the FD or the 626 units.

A bit of progress.

I went to my car last week and rewired the trailing coils. I followed the wiring diagram in the haltech section and it is wrong. I rewired to the haltech quick start guide now. After doing that it ran and free revved much better and the tach worked properly as far as i can tell.

Got the o2 bung moved with a new sensor and also had a joint put in what was a one piece exhaust so the down pipe can be removed if needed.

I had my brakes bled at the shot and they still have a mushy pedal. I havent driven the car but the shop said that it stops but not very well. So i dont know whats wrong with them.

I searched about master cylinders and all S5 5lug brakes use the same master cylinder, so i dont need to change that.

Any thoughts guys?
