    Default AEM digital WBO2 (Bosch 4.2LSU)

    I will be working with this setup for the first time this weekend. Does this work well with EFILive? Does anyone have any experience with this brand and / or some tips on setting it up properly? Thanks!

    Dear Boost,

    You of all people should know not to be a dumbass and do a bit of searching before asking such a vague general question. If you did, you might have stumbled across this:

    Thanks for asking Joe! I'm going to be needing lots of your help with this.

    I am a bit embarrassed to admit that I have not done anywhere near as much of this as I should have and wanted to through the years. There's been too much wrenching 9-5 and diesel work to really get good at it. But now to propel my car and this other awesome one I'm working on to the next level, I must break down and get to it in 2014

    I have to start by finding my cables and adapters for the V2. I have moved I half dozen times since 2006 and besides my V2 and it's two basic cables in the Fish Tuning case, (and a few SD cards), I don't know where they are!

    Where is the best place to obtain a new serial cable and the little adapters??

    Also I must contact TAQuickness and purchase a harness yo work with. Next step is to read all 5 threads I linked in post #2 along with Shawn's thread at least 10 times...

    Bear with me! (insert growling bear smiley here)

    If you get a cheap ethernet jack crimping tool (that can crimp RJ11/RJ12/RJ45) then probably the best way is to make your own cable (follow the wiring from those AEM posts).

    Can get a crimping tool online... for example: http://www.ebay.com/bhp/ethernet-crimp



    The trick is to remove the cable sheath while not stripping the individual wires, push the unstripped wires ALL the way into the RJ jack (with Rx/Tx swapped appropriately or not), and then crimp.

    Thank you for the great info as always Joe! I will definitely consider going that route, also looking at getting some of the stuff from an old friend.

    Update: purchased this! Thank you Joe for the great link. Looking to make progress on this car, will keep posted.
