Roush TVS no longer requires repining?

[JDV]

Shows as now having a "plug and play harness".

If this is true this would have saved me 2-3hrs.

Good shit...saw the harnesses on VMP site for 150

I read that somewhere else that the harnesses will be P&P now. Save some time for sure on the install and will be easier to put it back to stock too.

American Muscle shows plug and play harness on their Roush tvs kits.

I haven't seen anything on this recently, but have a TVS job coming in soon, so I should be able to confirm this one way or another. Though depinning the stock connectors and connecting them to the TVS harnesses only takes about 10 minutes..................maybe 15 if there is a hot soccer mom at the gas station across the street

It's not too bad. I wouldn't pay extra for plug and play harnesses.

Now if you didn't have to hack up the front cover.

Now if you didn't have to hack up the front cover.

You could always just buy a spare and get it machined off the car, then swap it for the install.

re-pinning was the biggest pain of the project....i didnt want to bust any of the old plugs so it sucked getting the pins out.

I assume the tvs kit is identical other than the compressor......my whippe kit had a roush lower intake and pulley bridge. all the wiring and odds and end were ford parts

I'm hoping FRPP will come out with a pre-machined one. It seems that the Aluminator 5.0 comes with one.

I am pretty sure that the Boss front cover is already rib less, but i think the bosses on the cover are still there.

 

[grnenvy]

If your looking for a machined cover I think Justin at VMP tuning has them. Or atleast when I was there he was talking about getting a couple machined. I would have to say it would take more time to RR the cover then grinding on it. If u have the right tools it's easy!

Two answers. Roush parts line guy says repining still required to use the harness, that the harness eliminates having to cut and splice the factory harness. *boggle*.

Chris at AM says the harness eliminates repining.

 

[Chuck@Evolution]

Mine still has the ribs.

That's weird....

What is the story,is the new harness really a plug and play?

 

[JDV]

Not for sure yet, but at first glance at the new kit I've seen, looks like repining is still required. No harness cutting. I'm gonna have to email Chris at AM and ask him about it

 

[Chuck@Evolution]

Just confirmed that the harness extensions require the connectors be repinned on the Roush kit

 

[Scuba-Matt]

Just get the harness kit from VMP. No pinning required.
