How dare anyone deny you your instant gratification!



For those more patient.. @Robftss, would it be practical to precondition the batteries while waiting for the kit?

I'm finally installed! I'm an automatic and agree that installation was pretty easy. I would have benefitted from an installation video but was too tired to record one. It's been a long week and everyday I decided to get a few hours of sleep instead of installing the SC was painful!

I have a Phantom tune from Shiv but it's for 91 and I have 3/4 tank of e85 left. I'll run that down gently on the e85 tune then switch to 91 and the phantom tune. Unfortunately I'm traveling almost solid for the next 6 weeks (Madison, New York, Portland, Chicago, Bloomington, Ho Chi Minh, and Honolulu) so that 3/4 tank will last a while....

Anywho - I did do a couple of 4k+ pulls and loved it. The added power and whooshing sound is great! . Very happy customer!

Did you run the loom for the switch through the driver side or the passenger side?

Awesome work on the install. I think shiv has a tune for e85... You should ask him....not sure how the phantom will react on a e85 tune that doesnt compensate for boost, you should be a little careful because we don't know what it will do.

Passenger side sound tube hole. Wasn't too bad but I started in the passenger foot well and I should have started routing from the drivers side. The end connector is smaller than trying to route the foot switch under the console. Was late and I wasn't thinking

So then that large gauge wire (red) is for your sound system?

Unfortunately he said it will be a couple of weeks before he has a Phantom e85 tune. I accidentally misunderstood him and ran the 91 phantom tune on e85 and was running really lean (20:1). That's when I found out its gas only for now. My OFH arrives Tuesday so I should be all bolted up next Saturday. Only need the right tune and I will be golden.

Yup. Runs to the amp in the trunk.

It would be sick to see a dyno for the following;

All Lightweight pullies available (crank + alternator)
Headers
Exhaust
CAI (from supercharger)
E85
TQ-300

I think this is what I'm going with.

I'd be interested in knowing what the ESC + e85 does at the track (1/4 mile). Deep in the 13's I'd think right? Anyone run it yet?

Shiv has dual dump packs with battery relocate to trunk.

He also has the tq300 and I think is testing with e85
