Another question...

I recall reading of a way to cut the charge time from 8x1 to 4x1.

What is that device, how much does it cost and is there a possibility of degrading the batteries (ie needing to replace them) by charging them faster.

Aww man, I just told my girlfriend that I wouldn't buy anymore car stuff for a while. I have a feeling she might be upset soon, but at least I will be able to drive away faster, lol.

Any thoughts on whether the gains are better/worse with 1.5 and no OFH vs. 1.0 and OFH?
For the price the 1.5 will get your more gains.

The OFH gets you awesome sound and a smoother curve.... I am just dying to get mine

I anticipate getting both... but it could be awhile after I drop 2k+/- on the ESC.

Saving remaining extra funds to take the kids to Disney this fall/winter.

The dual recharger is not out yet. But Fenton, shiv and maybe bu tang are testing this. I have only the single recharger and now that my batteries are almost completely broken in on the new packs it's hardly any difference from the single dump.

I would definitely get the dual recharger if I was tracking the car but not necessarily for street use.

That is the aux charger. I am working with Rob to see when that might be available for release. Ill get back to you on that one. There is no possibility of degrading the batteries, it actually splits the load between the two controllers so it is actually easier on the system.

I went as a kid, but we've never been as a family... and the oldest is 10, youngest is 4. 'Bout time to go. I'll send you a pm with a couple questions about FL since I haven't been there in 30 years.

Quick question does anyone know if the torque app only measures manifold pressure or if it includes atmospheric pressure.

I had heard it currently does not include atmospheric pressure -- but I'm not completely sure. I'd have to double check.

It accounts for atmospheric. The OFT currently does not.
