Hello again,
Even though I can't upload a wiring diagram yet I will try to explain how I wired the vboost to the horn switch.
Go to Vmax Outlaw and look at Terry Campell's "TBoost" mod. vmaxoutlaw.com/tech/TBoost.htm. You will need to build this mod, or buy it. I think vmaxoutlaw sells it. Several vendors offer it for sale pre-made. Look at the wiring diagram. There is an optional switch called "S1". Splice in the horn switch at the S1 location. Your boost will still come on at 6K anyway, but if you hit the horn button at 3K or over it will turn on the vboost. I built the Terry Campell mod and wired in my horn switch as the S1 the first time I modified my vmax.
The unit I am currently running is a v-boost activator sold by micromachines.ca/activator.htm. ( I got one almost for free, so what the *^$#, might as well install it). It comes with a toggle switch. Cut off the toggle switch and splice in the horn switch. Set the dip switches in the unit to all zeroes and you now have vboost at 2K or above.
Hope this is clear enough without pics.
OK, I know both of these mods will work when installed stock. The Terry Campell unit will kick on at 3K without the S1 (Horn) switch. The micromachines unit will automatically kick in at whatever rpm you set. For me, sometimes I don't want boost kicking in at 3K. Maybe I'm pulling out to pass that 18wheeler and I'll hit the boost at 42K. In any case, now I control when it kicks in. Just my preference.
Hope this helps. BTW, I've only done this mod to my ride, I don't guarantee it will work for you.
