WALJON did you have it set up like in joes diagram or was it
A. stait connection or resistor
OR
B. strait conection with resistor or resistor? (joes diagram)
because if it was A and the there would be a "lapse in current flow"
if you did it like in joes diagram or like in mine, there would be no "lapse in current flow" so maybe the light wont go off. idk just a thought, but when wiring resistors in parrall i believe there is an equation to figure out the total reistance, but some one can look that up. reciprical of the resistances added together = reciprical of total R?

I was using a 10k pot and I liked it , seemed better than just a resister I had it wired in line like coons

i put a 22k resistor in mine and it is unreal faster ,before i had to push the gas about 3/4 just to take off decent, now i barely touch the gas pedal and i take off like a bat out of hell compared to before

so ive been goofn around, and even on my 03, the 22K really woke it up on the bottom end, and the idle is still smooth.
the 10 K had a slightly lopie idle, and gave me a dead spot down low,
the 5 K however makes a wicked drag car lope, like a huge azz cam. but has zero driveabililty, huge dead spot down low, but once you get going and let off, it will kill itself the lope is so hard and slow.
