Remember, the Phantom ESC provides full power only at near-WOT. At throttle positions below that you're basically running the stock motor+ Phantom Drag Reduction.

The OFH improves power and responsiveness regardless if the Phantom ESC has been activated or not. So I'd say no matter what the MAX HP gains are, adding the OFH will improve torque and hp (especially in the torque dip area). Since the Phantom ESC has an OFT tune, the OFH makes it a perfect companion to a Phantom Supercharger.

And don't forget, the OFH will do the same for the any car with a TQ300 too.

Hi guys,
Still trucking along with TQ300/dual battery back testing. Need to send me controller harness back to Rob tomorrow for some tweaks but hopefully will be back up and running as soon as shipping times allows

Yeah this is very true! I just guess I'm confused as to why all the testing seems to be done on the 300 rather than the 250 that is available to us consumers. Either way I'm going to order my oft today so I can install my Esc. I'll just wait until someone eventually dynos the combo to get the ofh. Thanks though for the response

Using Torque (not sure how accurate it is), I've gotten 6.7s slightly uphill and 6.5s slightly downhill. However, both times were in 30-40 degree F weather on the stock summer tires.
Clarkson IS that bad of a driver. The only thing he knows how to do is drive a car sideways and perform donuts on factory fresh tires. Don't get me wrong I love his personality and all three of the group on the "Top Gear" show have, I say - and for me, the beat cohesion out of any other men's talk/test/whatever show in the English speaking world. That is why I hate the American version of Top Gear so much. The guys on the show just don't go together. They could keep the guy with the beard. But get rid of the others. And make Patrick Long the American Stig.

You only get to do that so many times before the significant other gets significantly annoyed. If Shiv is as smart as the evidence so far indicates, he's probably going to save that card for something really big.

Looks like a very cool project. Anyone have any insight as to lifespan of the batteries? As far as I understand, when you discharge and recharge batteries quickly, it cuts down on their max capacity. Can't wait to see how reliable these kits are and what effects they have on our engines over time. Great work so far, looks like a LOT of progress is being made!
