Default Unichip, vortech HELP

Ok first off I got a full kit for a 06 350z automatic. so non rev-up

here the part I need help with. kit came with unichip. but no instruction for unichip set up. Went to there website. they have instruction that dont look like my set up.

So what I need help with is, the plug with the red and brown wire. Where do I plug that to. Does it go to the square unichip box, or the Plug and play box.

Then how the hell did yall run that short *** brown wire to the fuel relay. Also anyone have picture of there fuel relay, so I can make sure Im running things right.

Please help. Im so close to being done.

Hmm...I don't know for sure, but I think the unichip kit is for revup kits only...

Is is possible that you got a revup kit?

Hmmm...I saw the latest version of the manual...I see the non-revup unichip...

Unfortunately, I also see that they didn't include instructions on how to install the unichip into a non-revup...I have a feeling that the wire color scheme for a 2006 revup ECU vs non-revup is different. I definitely know that the wire colors from a revup vs non-revup 03-05 is a little different (I know this because I was originally going to install a SS box on my revup vortech; I'm not fond of the unichip and its tuneability)...

BTW I ended up doing Osiris instead of the SS box...

I didn't know you made a thread bro.

Do you have a code reader? if don't, stop by local autozone and scan it. Check MAF housing first tho.

You don't have a manual yet? i thought you asked vortech to send you one. You also can find one on their website .

I think 'tylerxfire' installed full kit, he might can help you out.

Edit: incase if you need to understand about the code, here is a list.

Hey buddy. man your always up. I didnt get a chance to go to store yet. they were close by the time I was done. man it running slower then stock. what you think it could be.

What you mean by Check MAF housing first tho.

I kind of think maybe my fuel pump relay is not working. I dont really hear when the inline fuel pump kick on. I ground it and force it one and it loud when its working. but its not doing anything when car is one.

And the manual I dont have is for the unichip. but I think I got it going right. not sure. maybe thats why my relay not working. haha. hoping just bad relay.

just check teh code for free and in 1 minute from home

1. Confirm that accelerator pedal is fully released, turn ignition switch “ON” and wait 3 seconds.
2. Repeat the following steps (2a and 2b) procedures quickly five times within 5 seconds.
2a. Fully depress the accelerator pedal (HARD).
2b. Fully release the accelerator pedal.
3. Wait 7 seconds, fully depress the accelerator pedal and keep it for approx. 10 seconds until the CEL starts blinking.

count the blinks. 10 blinks is a 0, 1 blink is 1, etc etc..

Then cross reference the # to this https://my350z.com/forum/maintenance...d-generic.html

I paid mine for 45 dollars + shipping. It's on driverside left under the dash. ( sorry i'm not good at explain stuff..... )

Our MAF sensor is very senstive, i saw many of Z/G owner had CEL because of MAF housing was dirty or not plug in all the way or Etc.
