East Coast Supercharging ECS Alky C5 - Manual (Page 5)

3) Nozzle
The nozzle will be placed before throttle body. Install head of nozzle in the upper
portion of the air bridge 2 o’clock position on Mag cars or in the upper portion of the
pipe on supercharged applications. The installed height of the nozzle must be
higher than the tank. Else siphoning can occur. Simply drill 3/8 diameter hole into
location, feed nozzle in leaving one sealing washer on the inside.. tighten fitting on the
outside , then depending on thickness of material, install other washer on the outside.
Some applications require no washers with thick aluminum or silicone hose installs..
others require just one.. others both.. in the case of thin aluminum. Trick is to not
bottom nozzle out in the 90 degree elbow supplied. After nozzle is installed attach
supplied 1/8 pipe to –4 adapter. Clean area for debris, reinstall pipe. There is a supplied
check valve “IN CASE” siphoning occurs, whereby liquid flows when system is shut off.
4) MAP sensor
The MAP(manifold air pressure) sensor can be installed under the dash if an
aftermarket mechanical gauge is used. Enclosed is a brass “t” and compression
fittings so the plastic line going to the aftermarket gauge can be used. Simply cut
tubing, and place brass block in-line. Then attach small section of hose from brass
barb to nipple on MAP sensor. Enclosed for 5 volt power is a 5 volt regulator. Wire
the regulator RED to Red on 6 pin connector, Black to ground, green to green on 6
pin connector.
5) Under-hood wiring
The only wiring needed to be done under the hood is the pump, and then run shielded
double wire into vehicle through firewall. Two options, one is through the grommet or
drilling a small hose through the fiberglass and using RTV sealant underneath the hood
latch grommet.
Now maybe a good time to take a break, wash hands, the easy part begins.
6) In-Car wiring
This is just guidelines from numerous installations I have done. The sky is the limit on
creativity, and this should only be used as reference for what I have done, has been
easy, and has worked.
The first thing I always do is visually place where the location of the “turn-on” LED will
be located. Typically this will be near your boost gauge. The purpose of this LED is to
indicate when the system has reached its turn-on threshold based on the signal from
