Apparently the equipment is all disassembled for the track rebuild; this is an "arm drop" drag. Still, I'm nervous of such things!

I drove 250 miles this morning (there and back) to visit a client. All but 20 miles on the highway. My fuel consumption round trip resulted in 35 mpg (36 there, 34 home) cruising with the cruise control engaged at 72mph. I engaged the ESC quite a bit; on/off ramps and lots of passing. Power was always where I needed it when I wanted it. Down shifting for passing at 65 is not required. The 3 or 4 times I did down shift to 5th to make a pass, I went from 65 to 90 in the time/distance it took to pass an 18 wheeler. The boost is deceptively strong. Engaging boost between 2500 and 4000 and holding it to 6000 is really a sweet spot.

Faster! Its tailored to the top end, it really keeps pulling and pulling.

Dont get me wrong it isnt double the speed or anything but anyone use to the first one would notice a difference from 4000 and up.

My butt dyno is very happy.

Once we get this thing on the real dyno i think we are going to see some decent numbers. Figuring around 225 on 93oct.

Hows the low end? I was a big fan of this kit because it fixed the lack of usable
Torque in the low end. I really hope this wasn't lost.

It wasn't lost at all, there is too much. There is so much now that i need a retune. Its pushing my car to be rich below 3500rpm.

These were my un-tuned and non-formatted battery datalogs. These were done within the first day of receiving the unit from Rob. Also, I have invested approximately $10+k into the car.

Interesting comparison though, right? $10K invested how, exhaust, headers, intake?

Okay, I'm doing dyno pulls at Goodspeed of Scottsdale on Saturday, midday. Theirs is a MAHA LPS 3000; not sure that kind of dyno has been represented on the Phantom FTS yet, so that should be interesting!
@fenton This will be with Toma's tune.
