Hi, i'm surely the first in the world to do an 09. For now i'm using an 07 harness and ECM, the 09 sub harness and intake need 3 small mod and for now i'm not telling because i spend 4 days solving that, i'm sure you understand. I also have the full 09 harness and all components, i already started playing with this one, yep, i think we can cheat the CAN system. Time will tell. When ready, in a week or 2, i will try the 09 harness, even if the customer will get the 07. I can't wait. The engine itself is the same, intake and sub harness have some small but important difference. I will tell you one! the 3 wire coolant temp sender as now only 2 wire, the cluster/dash wire is gone, send by ECM to dashboard. Interesting stuff: AC compressor is half the size of previous years PS pump is a bit different but nothing major. ALT is the same but now the third wire/pin is use, for now i'm not sure why. A few pictures: http://www.benplace.com/bertrand_subi1.htm On the same page I just added some pretty cool body work stuff, we now have a new tool for dent/ding, men this is so great, it save us a lot of hours. Expensive but well worthed! A few new putty product that dry slower and give us more time to work on the rough part, but not to long drying, just enough. A few new tools.... pretty cool stuff Cheers, Ben |
