Officially joined the waiting list!

Now the agonizing wait begins

If interested I'll post some pics.

Yeah, still running the original starter battery with the 1.5 dump pack. Some pics would be great.

Thanks for the info! I'm running 91 and only get the occasional smell from time to time at WOT. If I turn the ESC off and just run with ESC tune, no smell.
I haven't been curious enough to drive out of my way and try e85. I'll just get a beer and fries

My layout is pretty much the same, the dual dumps are just about 1/2'' wider than the battery tray and brace.

I forgot the nuts, I just used whatever I had around that would work as a spacer, and used some longer screws.

It's dark and really hard to see, so I highlighted the end of the tray. I just ran it through a table saw and cut the lip off the side so the battery could overhang.

Anyone here running something other than the OTS tune? Wondering how much extra horsepower can be squeezed out from a custom tune...

Yes @dtek did get this resolved. Dtek is actually in Australia so he took his US based kit and converted it to RHD. This meant extending a bunch of wires. Long story short there was one extension that was not up to snuff for the amount of watts that ESC was pulling.

Once he fixed that issue he is back to where he should be.

I was running a custom tune of Shiv's but it was on a different controller and charger....i was making ~230 whp on 93 octane.

Shiv's standard tune is VERY good....a custom tune will only maybe get another 5 or so HP out of it(on standard fuel) but it will be more aggressively tuned to the knock threshold.

I also had a "custom" tune(from different tuner) before going to shiv's OTS map and i was only making 197hp whereas shiv's was making 208....he has the most experience and seat time with the ESC.

I installed a second hand USA kit from Gary in NJ, and made longer cables to fit RHD in Australia. Thanks Gums for giving me the dump cable and to dtek for converting the USA tune for my A01G ROM.

I converted the throttle switch by reversing the folds of the bracket. I plan to get the Procede soon.

The cables are in a temporary position until I decide the final length and location, probable under the manifold.
