      I am currently in the final stages of development for the 1.9L digijet harness.  I am looking at starting production sometime after the first of the year.  I would definitely be able to add some extra length in order to relocate the ECU.  Once I get into production and get everything ironed out, I can look into the modifications needed for relocating the ECU wherever you desire.  Let me know if you have any questions, otherwise I will get back in touch with you when the digijet harness is ready to go.

      could put it on the list.  It would also be wonderful if I could get an idea of what kind of quantities there would be a demand for.

      Thanks,
      KYLE
