Default Trying to find a switched wire with power under ignition.

Looking for a switched wire under the passenger foot well fuse box area. That I can tap into for a MSD timing twister install. It needs to power on and off with ignition, but keep a constant power during ignition. I have been told the coil pack pink wire is an option.

Thank you for the response. I used that wire when I first installed the nitrous system and sent it to the tuner. The problem with that wire is. It loses power during the ignitions cycle. It will not work. This wire need to keep constant power when you are starting up the car.

Theres the thicker orange wire that goes to the ignition switch you could tap off.
I think it's on while cranking.
You would have to check.

You'll be looking for a pink ignition wire. Orange is accessory and will drop out while cranking.
