ive put an x16 in my previously c14se corsa, the x16 loom doesnt seem to be that easy to get around all the pipes and stuff, has anyone else had this problem, just thought i'd ask before i chop the loom to bits

connect everything that you can find a home for them take pictures of the stuff you cant find a home for and post them up....

Should have got a C16XE the wirings easy, X16XE's are a nightmare, too much trunking etc round the inlet manifolds etc, fooking hated it when i stuck a X14XE in a friends corsa
