maybe 1mm wire for the earths and the relay supplys icv and amal valve.
when it comes to the screened wire does the screened part of the wire need to be connected to the ecu??
most ecu etc are around 3/5 amps max so 0.20 is fine and this is what i use on all my pectel t2 harnesses.
warren if you want some 2 core screen then send me a pm as ive got 100s metres as i use this at work and its best to earth the screen at the ecu side rather than the crank or cam sensors as its a short run of earth other wise you would have to take a 0.20 earth cable around the engine bay. just make sure you earth one side only!!
as for the overbraid i use the polyster as the heat resistant overbraid is very expensive and did not make fiancial to me as i simply just sleeve areas that are prone to extreme heat. i mean if your wirings over 90 degree the insulation would start to melt anyway.
hope this helps lads and i get mine from vwp
cheers paul
