Updated the post with a diagram. Hope this helps others that find this thread.

Nice one! Looks great!

Is 18 gauge wire satisfactory for constructing this harness?

More than enough.
Try to use TXL instead of GXL or SXL.

Thanks.

I have enough 18g TXL left from my electric fan project to get this done.

Mostly I was concerned with it being sized correctly for the OE connectors. A little googling indicates the connectors accommodate wire with a cross section of between 0.5mm and 1.0 mm. 18g falls right in there. I was just too lazy to look for myself and figured the hive mind would know.

Complete derail, but you wired a fan with 18AWG? Bit small ain't it?

Fair question. The 18g was for the fan controller. For the fan itself I used 10g.

I sent a note to the folks at: https://auto3design.co.uk/online-sho...onversion-kits

They noted the following:



Reach out to them if there's interest.

FYI, I contacted Auto3Design recently as well and they are going to build and sell a harness based on the diagram in this thread. I asked them to size it for an air rail mounted MAP sensor. The link should be available this weekend, and the harnesses should be ready next week. Will be interested to see how it looks. . . . I'll likely give it a try as I gather parts for an airbox install.

Hey turns out my illustration was good for something! glad to see this move forward. Post up when you have it so I can see how they handle the fit and finish.

Will do! And great work again to you and karter figuring this out. I told them I bet they’ll sell a lot of these because this seems like the new go-to solution for a CSL airbox install with MAP.
