Perfect Power Help - Subaru Impreza GC8 & RS Forum & Community: RS25.com

I started the install of my Perfect Power tonight and I have hit a road bump. The installation manual says to use the "yellow wire" and "T" it into my ECU ignition wire. The problem is, this yellow wire was in the pinout as part of the crank (+) wires. I do not know which PP6 wire is actually the ignition wire. Any idea as to how I find out which one it is?

As of now, he car will crank but will not turn over. I plugged back in the little circuit board to get home but without it, the PP6 is not linking the signals.

Also, what are these pull ups they refer to in the wiring diagram? It looks like you plug one wire from the PP6 into another port. This does not look right

Bumping up my old thread.

I installed a 330 Ohm resistor between the power wire and the crankshaft wire and I also merged the black/blue (#14) pickup wire into the crankshaft wire. The car still will not start with the Perfect Power plugged in. It starts just fine with the delete bridge.

I am thinking about picking one of these up, should I?

I will let you know if I can ever get mine working. It truly has been a hassle on my car. I have had 2 friends with phase one 2.5 motors get it to work beautifully. They have both helped me try and get it done on a phase 2 2.2 motor and we have not had any luck. I wonder what the hell is going on.

where did you purchase it from, can they give you any insight? It may be worth a try to call rallitek or pm garner or sean on here they sell alot of these and can walk you through almost any problem as far as I know
