time and effort involved in wiring up a 2pin connector, 5-10mins? benefits? ability to start cold when cold.

vs..

spending ages fookin about removing the thing and then crap running after

the non-ISCV cold start stragegy on emerald blows. use the ISCV

Go to the scappy and pull on off a cvh mk5b escort, got ford stamped in the top rather than efi. Looks a bit nicer i think
