Start button to ignition switch change
I'm getting ready to install a turbo kit and will be modding the radio control pod to add my boost controller there.
The boost controller is 66mm, which leaves little room for the start button. I'm thinking about switch the start button over to this:
Longacre Ignition Switch
This would give me the room I need.
Anyone have any experience or thoughts about changing over?
Thanks!

I may not be understanding what you're proposing correctly, but if the plan is to replace the push button ignition start switch with this toggle switch then it should not work. The OEM start button is a momentary switch while the one shown appears to be a toggle switch. Wired into the original circuit path, the new switch would leave the starter spinning for as long as it is toggled on.

I'm really just concerned about if the car will allow this to happen. I have an 06 AP2 and I know I can do all of the work, but will the toggle switch do the same and work as if it is the start button?
