Sure. Sure you did. Go play with your V-8 M3 and stop messing around with the Minis.

That might be the little grain of truth to all his story telling, but from the way he talks, you wouldn't be anywhere without him or Daniel.

Those pieces look great, by the way... why must the Time Attack at Buttonwillow be the same weekend as AMVIV?

You should head over to SOW next Friday and bring your track monster with you.

It's going to start..... that's a given

when people see the power under the curve at the same hp levels of these turbo cars they will wonder why they have a turbo except to hear the blow off valve

Is that the Redline event on 3/29? If so, I'll probably see you there. I'll be running on 3/27 in my measly little 170hp car shooting for a 2:08-2:09, that will be a challenge . I won't be running the time attack obviously as I'm driving a street car, but was planning to hang out and check everything out.

tested the new ECU today

runs the stock throttle body and is fully calibrated now

accepts tuning changes while it runs. Will be able to run alternate maps for methanol and nitrous. Has two step and the all of the features you need.

We will be going through the canbus now to turn off the check engine light. This may take some time but the ecu is operational now.

I will be running this on the TVS for now to see what it can do.

Good thing is the car is fully controllable now.......
The throttle body was the hard part

the final key is to get all of the lights to go out

I think he has a couple of motors waiting for him to do.
I guess this isn't the piggy back (unichip) deal everyone thinks it is.

I plan on starting it before the rotors even get done. We have the dimensions of the rotors so building a case around them will work

So the case we have now can't be modified to suit the rotors or vice versa?
