I like the letter. I would clarify on the abbreviations I gave though like this:

Phantom Electric Supercharger: ~$1800 to $2000 (single vs. 1.5 dump battery upgrade)

Vishnu Open Flash Tablet: $500 ($300 savings over ECUtek tune and includes the ESC tune)

Vishnu Open Flash Unequal Length Header: $550 ($550 savings, boxer rumble, great quality, more power in the mid range). The sound from this replaces the need for the cat back saving a further $860.

Remove the Intake as the most to be gained is maybe 2whp and often throws off fuel calculations. The stock intake is way better engineered than an aftermarket one. This saves $287.

With just these changes you have spent the same money and gain more power and increase the power where it matters most, under 6,000 RPM.

After you posted those links of the maita build I went and took a look. Kit is just as popular there with already 5 kits going out soon. Glad to see more and more people enjoying the kit.
@shiv@vishnu has there been anything published on the Lotus Elise or Cayman in regards to phantom.

For the interest of the super detailed install instructions. I need some help. I need pictures of a stock car. Specifically: stock battery, intake tube, all the pieces of the sound generator and the air filter box.

Can anyone help?

What would make better power with the ESC armed, but in DR-only mode? Stage 1/2 tune or ESC tune?

Also since so many new memebrs are getting the ESC I am wondering on your impressions thus far! Please keep us proespective buyers filled in.

When will the next shipments be available for purchase? I am finishing finals in the next week and would love a summer project
Hey man, let's meet up. You can poke around all you like, and I think a drive will answer many of your questions. PM me!

So what's the socially acceptable way of getting ahold of @Robftss these days? I think I'm ready to try this new-fangled electric boost thing. I sent him a PM already.
