I just got my V-AFC II and it came with a wiring diagram instructions. Perhaps that would help you? I'm waiting on my harness so I don't have to solder wires. Might be a better way for you, too.

Where do you get a wiring harness for a VAFC II for a CLS?

What do you hope to gain with this other than a lighter pocket??

scalbert- is this really proven to have "zero" gains after mods? I have i/h/e and was wondering if this would do anything?

Oh come on Steve. Why do people spend $600 on an exhaust system when they show minimal to no gains? Because they look cool. I love my VAFC and even though I know it does little in the way of performance, it sure looks cool.

Hey, if it is for looks then go for it.

I just wanted to be clear that good gains are not in the equation which is why I asked about the intention initially.

The VAFC is a much better tool when used on engines it can truly help, it does look pretty cool (i like your installation), but the the b16s b18s, and others stand a lot more to gain for the money, and exhausts make a lot more noise to go with their looking cool, although I would never waste the money on one short of going fi...
