Default SRT intake/ ecu assistance (anyone in nyc)

I bought a used intake with ecu so i have no manuals i read the DIY and its like chinese to me and i would rather not mess this up so if anyone in the NYC area would be willing to assist me with the ecu wiring that would be great.

look for srt intakes for sale in the classifieds, that's where i found mine for 300 shipped for my 01 gs300. stayblaze, i can supply you with the wiring diagram and manual, the whole installation is pretty easy besides the wire splicing and cutting part, im not very good with those tools for wires.

Here's the diagram: Only worry about using the correct colors from the Swift ECU. As far as the Lexus ECU, position is what's important. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me.

I did my gs430, it's not as hard as it seems.

I can help you with the install..

but the actual splicing of the wire and soldering them isn't my cup of tea, I can tell you what to cut and stuff...but I haven't gotten around to even soldering my wires =-\.


The key is...Don't go by color...go by location!!!!!!!!

PM me if you need help

OK EMERGENCY.

I tried to do this myself which i was trying to avoid. Now the car starts but wont stay on. It hiccups then shuts off. i didnt install the ECU because it got to dark last night when i was doing it. If the ECU piggy back is not in will that cause this or is there maybe something else wrong. I guess my question is if i just put the piping in should i still be able to drive the car without the ECU someone please anyone help...
