i just got my greddy turbo timer, and im getting readdy to install it, one things is bothering me is the purple wire, it needs to go to the vehicle speed sensor, where would i go and tap a signal from?

there is a speed sensor on the tranny and there is a speed sensor built into the ABS sensor that is behind the pass side front rotor (i found out this was also a speed sensor when i busted it and the OBD2 code was "speed sensor")

you can hit a tac wire in the main harness somewhere just look at the remote start diy's. southpawboston has a good one written up on gtclub.

yeah dont use them every wire you should need is on the ECU..ok as I stated in my thread for the install, use the same wires as I did and things should be fine.
