I used a injection pump plate to tap my wire... There is no external signs of tampering with the wire.

I think the Stealth Plate is the only way to go.

I've also got a stealth plate on mine... Water tight and never got to worry...


Programmer are only good for about 60 HP and wire tap is good for 120-150 HP gains...
