Has anyone used USB cable for the PIP and the SAW wires? It Is cheap, and is a shielded cable BUT the gauge of the wire is very thin. 25-30 ga????
I guess the real question is how much load is on these wires.
This also goes for the VR sensor. USB cable would be a great solution BUT again the gauge is so darn thin. I think the real problem may be the environment in the engine compartment.
Shield Cable - Can you use USB Cable?

Dean, I used some nice heavy shielded stuff from an older Subaru(wrecking yard). They have many wires that need shielding, so easy to find. All I found are two conductor plus shield, exactly what we need. About 5/16" diameter, and looks like 18 or 20 gauge conductors inside.
Started and ran right out of the box, no interference or problems of any kind. The Suby wires are for cam, crank, and speed sensors, same as our requirements.
