I have ready the posts and archives about this topic...Let me see if i understand.
There is a intercooler pump relay connected to a harness/plug.
If I disconnect the relay from the harness, the pump will always be "on" with ignition being "on". What confuses me is where splicing to the yellow wire should take place. With relay disconnected from harness, what am I supposed to do? Any help appreciated...

you don't disconnect the relay. You simply tap into the yellow wire, and ground it. Pump will then always run w/ the ignition on.

You pull the relay apart when you get it off the firewall. THere are two prongs inside. When you're looking at the relay from the front, the right prong is the prong that I tapped into. 12g wire in the connection, grounded to the screw that holds the relay to the firewall.

Just how I did it. I didn't feel like cutting and splicing.

This weekend I did hotwiring. After removing bracket, intercooler relay and harness did not want to come apart easily. I ended up pulling out yellow wire with its connector from the harness(no cutting); since yellow wire had its terminal connector end in place, I grounded it to bracket screws. Does this sound right?
