Removing DP Fix from Jb3

Dr. G · 11-19-2010, 04:14 PM

I have a jb3 with the DP Fix wired into the jb3 parts.

Could I just pull out the wires for the DP Fix? What is the best way to go about this without downpipes yet.

Also anyone know which verion DP fix this is... pics attached.

And the Jb3 is 2.0 gen 3 correct?

Are you going to sell it?

Well, I wanted to install the jb3 this weekend and I'm not sure if I need to remove the DP Fix.

If I don't I might just keep the DP fix for later, if I remove it I will probably sell the DP Fix as I won't need it until winter is over.

You still have the 3 small wires that the DP fix replaced, correct? Looks like its version2, the no adjustable one.

Ummm no, I don't have the 3 wires that it replaced... is that bad? lol

If it doesnt effect it leave it not sure ask mike, but if it does just extend the wires then cut but label them or get a small plug then splice it that way if you install DP's later on it will be an easy plug and play. So you dont have to take apart again.

So according to the above advice 2 possible scenarios.

1) Install the jb3 as it is and:
a) Don't connect the DP Fix Part
b) Connect the DP Fix Part

2) Cut out the DP Fix part and just tape together the wires after

Any feedback available on these options?

You can install it with the DP fix equipped. Or so I have read on n54tech

Just take 3 wires from spots not used from the jb3 harness. Look where OEM wires are not connected,now you have 3 small wires ,and now take off the dp fix wires and replace them with 3 small wires..i just did the same thing a week ago

Okay so I'm not sure if I understood correctly, but this is my interpretation.

Remove the 3 DP Fix wires from the Jb3 plug, then find 3 OEM wires that aren't plugged in anywhere and take those out and put them into the jb3 plug:S ?

Sorry, but I've never done any kind of technical stuff on my own so I'm still pretty technically challenged. Slowly learning though, planning to do all mods by myself to learn
