MAC ordered.

How do you splice out / branch out the +14V for injectors, sensors etc. from the main +14V, Rod? I dont want to solder anything.

You can buy various crimp or heatshrink style joints

Only actuators like injectors, idle valve, boost solenoid will receive 12v from the car ( and coil or coils too )

All engine sensors will be at most a 5v, ground and signal. So depending how many of these, you could have multiple splices.

Or if you do get thin Raychem style cable, you could run dedicated sets back to local to the ecu, and then look into joining wires there instead.

Whilst not totally solder free, this sort of joint might work for some. It's a heat shrink sleeve which also contains glue to secure the pvc ends.

You can get them totally solder free if you want.

You can get non insulated cable joints/crimps that are fairly compact....somewhere. Just not sure where ! lol
