The car feels amazing as the oft tune continues to learn. Right now I have the dump and a half pack and I think for most people that is going to be the next upgrade. No battery relocate required and you get about 95% the performance of the double dump plus relocate.

The addition of the half pack adds about 7 to 10 HP and one you get the standard system wrote up it is a dead simple upgrade.

Both Rob and butang were very impressed with my cars torque with the oft tune and a dump and a half. The new found torque really makes the car fight for traction in first and second gear.... It is a great feeling.

I'll be taking some videos as soon as I get the track pipe installed.

Tq300 or tq250? I'm assuming tq300 since you hadn't said you had switched but after what shiv said about the 300 I was wondering if you switched back.

Also with the new dump back design doesn't that put us on par or better then the vortech system?

While driving around with @nlowell today I think we may have come across something that should be added to the install instructions. His ESC tripped the overheat sensor faster then mine. What we were wondering was it due to the controller or the batteries? I was assuming the controller since when we were looking at the differences between the cars I noticed that his had some wiring blocking the controller fan which would not allow as much airflow. Either way what I recommend for all installers on the controller is to try to keep as much stuffaway from it as possible to keep it as cool as possible.
