In my case, the tie wrap is there to put some of the tightness back into the hose fitting lost due 17year old rubber. It would slip off rather easily.

Isn't that kind of a lesser of evils that the MAP hose blows off. I had thought I remembered reading somewhere over at the NetReg site that there is a cause and effect relationship between not starting an LT5 correctly and the back fire that blows off the MAP hose????

Tom is correct, the map sensor is the easiest hose to get access to, but with TFENT's car being a 90, he does not have the other hose that goes back under the plenum that will blow off if the map sensor is zip tied.


On to the alarm issue, I have never seen an alarm incorporated into a C4 that has been done properly with out screwing something else up, or having the install just be hacked in there. I despise aftermarket alarms in C4's.

As far as the code 42, they probably tapped into the wire off the column, and caused the issue. Luckily they did not blow the bag.
