The following steps outline the installation procedure:

1.Remove the factory ECU from the vehicle: Ensure the key is in the OFF position. The factory ECU is located on the left side A pillar. Remove the left kick panel. Unplug the wiring harness from the factory ECU. Remove the bolts that retain the ECU and remove the ECU from the vehicle. DO NOT touch the exposed pins in the factory ECU connector.

2.Remove the factory ECUs circuit board from its enclosure: Ensure you are following the given anti-static guidelines and ARE WEARING A CONDUCTIVE WRIST STRAP connected to a conductive working surface. Remove the top and bottom covers from the ECU enclosure by removing the four corner retaining screws. Remove the 7 screws holding factory ECU components to the case. Remove the circuit board by removing the retaining screws. Hold it only by the plastic header and place it aside.

3.Fit the Link Plug-In ECU: Remove your Link ECU from its packaging and insert it into the case. Using two factory 'component mounting' screws, firmly screw the Link ECU heat sink to the case. Place the factory ECU in the packaging your Link ECU came in for its protection.

4.Thread the USB tuning cable through the slot in the side of the case and plug it into the ECU. If using the internal MAP sensor (recommended for all applications requiring less than 1.5 bar of boost) run a length of vacuum hose into the enclosure and connect it to the MAP sensors pressure port. It is recommended to use a hose clamp or small cable tie on this hose.

5.Reassemble the enclosure and fit the ECU back to the vehicle.

6.Connect the ECU to the factory wiring loom.

7.Do NOT attempt to start the vehicle. Proceed to read through the remaining sections of this manual first.
