Means there's basically no cabling behind the rear wheels. Small weight move I guess.

Easy to get to for tuning cabling (my cigeret lighter will now be a USB port)

Boots are easy to brake into and the ecu is worth over 2K new

And the plug... means if I need to drop the motor the loom undoes at one point and I'm not pissing around with tiny plastic plugs.
Also cause race car

The G4 extreme can only use the 4bar for some reason.

Although I have been keeping an eye out for a supercharger kit

Quad vvt means I need:
4 pulse width modulation outputs
4 cam angle sensors
Crank trigger
Plus all the ussual sensors.

Also retaining E throttle so I can have a non linear throttle to retain drive ability. Atm the throttles super touchy, think with the highlander it had an auto box to soft start, and heavy land tank to pull. The less weight, and tight clutch means (especially with cold start on) doing a 3 point turn it just wants to launch it self into stuff lol


So yeah, it's a lot of inputs and outputs. That and the G4 came up super cheap on fb, guy needed quick cash so I got a good deal on

Oh and yeah, I have thought of that haha
Unfortunitly the standard intake has it advantages. I think a blower off a late model camaro sticking out the engine lid would be epic AF
