2G Chassis wiring harness PMU

[babyviper]

Has anyone done an install of a PMU like the ones listed below for their chassis harness? I would like to rewire my chassis harness to get rid of all I deleted separate it from the engine harness. Just wondering if anyone has already done so I could get some sense where to start.

I've wired an Evo X with a MoTec PDM. You're really looking at building a new harness from scratch, as the PDM sends power directly to components, and that kind of circuit is usually considerably different than the factory wiring. Trying to adapt the factory wiring would be... weird. Far more work than just building a new harness. Let me know if you have any specific questions.

I think I figured it out, most people don't run all the creature comforts in the chassis on the PMU. I think I'll just keep it in the engine bay. The confusion came in when I was calculating all of my outputs and it was around 30 and most PMU's are around 16. I was wondering how people ran the entire car with that low number of outputs, but I see they aren't it mostly just for the engine bay and stripped race cars.

True. Most are either very bare-bones race cars, or they run two. There are a few PMU's out with more outputs, but they're relatively new to market and so don't have the history of reliability like the others. A lot of people build their non-essential chassis wiring out with cooper bussman fuse boxes, as they're sealed and they take cheap, plentiful mini-fuses and relays.
