Power

Quick question I just bought an aem a/f and a inceptor and my question is where are most people picking up power for these, are most people doing a fuse tap or tapping into the power from the stock boost gauge, and if u are using a fuse tap what fuse are u using and what gauge wire etc.

bunp

i just get power from the fuse box on the passenger side using mini add-a-circuits from autozone. i take power from the sunroof and the wipers since they are only on when the car is on

i don't like taking power from the boost gauge wiring. thats just me. its thin gauge wire and people are running multiple accessories off of it. that is just asking for too much amperage draw and wires getting too hot IMO

I took my power from an empty (un-used) slot on the passenger side fuse panel with a add-a-fuse like Blazin mentioned. Works great !! I wasnt found of tapping into any of the other accessories to access power.
