STAGE 2 ECUTUNE INSTALL question

Is there anything special i oughta know before tackling the install of my stage 2 chip/370cc injectors/z32 maf? Will the maf bolt right up to the sotck location? Are there any special tricks or useful things I may need to know when handling the injectors? Is the ecu as simple as removing the old one and putting the new one one?

I ask because the stage2 chip didnt come with instructions and im not entirely comfortable diving into my computers brain without an idea of exactly what im getting into. Any insight yall could offer would be much appreciated.

Significant Technical Input
Re: STAGE 2 ECUTUNE INSTALL question

The stage 2 installation instructions are on the website. The link is on the stage 2 page and here... http://www.ecutune.com/SVX-Stage-2v7-Instructions.pdf

The installation instructions assume readers know how to install fuel injectors--I'll fix this in the next revision. It's important to use all new o-rings on your fuel injectors. It's also important to generously lube them up with vaseline before installing them into the fuel rails. If you use old o-rings or you don't generously lube the new ones they will tear during installation and cause you many headaches in the future.

That's it...pretty simple really. Do a good job installing the 370cc injectors, do a good job wiring the air flow meter, and make sure the resistor activating the socket in the ECU is removed and you won't have any problems.
