Reading the post is absolutely hilarious! If you only knew how I harassed the hell out of Rob installing the kit then killed a battery in the process.... I was hellbent on getting this damn thin installed.

Just dont do what i did which was forget to install the brass connector for the two batteries, take it for a test drive, and then feel disappointed by the lack of power.

I have a copper connector that looks like it is supposed to connect terminals on two batteries. If I understand the 1.5 dump instructions, I am not supposed to use that, correct?

No, you need it to connect the main dump pack together but you remove it as part of the 1.5 conversion so you don't electrocute yourself (or something like that)

Completely assemble the battery the battery pack before installing it into the car. This way you can take a multimeter and confirm that you are getting 25.7v (+/- 0.2) at the hook-up terminals.

I'm thinking once I get my student loans paid off this fall, this might be a great first (and only) power mod. Really not too disappointed with the power stock, but this is just way too cool!

So for those who have this, what're your thoughts after running it for a few months?

CELs are:

P0102 - Mass or Volume Air Flow Circuit Low Input

P0113 - Intake Air Temp Circuit High Input

I also have no traction control. The low traction light is staying lit and the buttons have no functionality. Hmm...
