Phantom FTS Electric Supercharger Owners Thread

[ajcarson11]

Evening All,

If anyone is interested in parting with their Phantom ESC i'd be very interested to make a deal. I let the latest one slip out of my hands, and after some discussion would like to utilize it as part of my last grad-school project. I've peaked interest in a few folks and would love to incorporate it into some plans. I'm still around ~62nd or so on the waiting list so thought that I could post up here in case anyone has been on the fence with theirs or is looking to go full-time forced induction.

Appreciated!

Most likely just vibrations. Just put some thread lock if you are worried.

They've been sitting for ~2 months now, but worked great prior to that.

Final bump before I recycle them.

1yr+ milestone check-in post.

NOTE: I don't drive very much (As a matter of fact I switched my car insurance to Metromile (they base your premium on your mileage) and literally dropped my rates by more than 1/2 because of it!), so take that into account.

No issues, everything has been fine and for the most part I forget it's even there now...mostly. It's kind of like having a little Tasmanian Devil in my pocket; He's just there, chillin and hanging out. UNTIL that clueless mook on the road is doing something stupid and I want to put some distance between him and me. Then I remember Taz is right here in my pocket for just such occasions and I let him out! A couple of seconds later the mook is in my rear-view mirror pissing someone else off and I get a little reminder of just how badass Taz is as I put him back in my pocket and he goes back to chillin.

Oh, on another note, does anyone know a way to make the voltage box brighter? It's almost useless to try and read it during the day. Thanks.

Hey any of you removing the spare tire and loading the trunk spare area with bigger and more batteries?

I did, sorta. I moved my factory starter battery to the trunk and have been running two sets of the original dump, power sonic (PS-12180-NBX2) batteries for almost 2 years exactly now. I haven't had any problem out of the setup besides loosing some trunk space and easy spare tire access. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=69409&

Well, I havent visited this thread in a while. But i wanted to mention that I will soon post for sale my 2nd Phantom ESC.

I purchased it originally from another member here on the forum. I re-did some of the wiring connections and put new connectors on. Its easier now to install. But i dont have any pictures yet. However, when i get back in town this weekend I will get post up.
However, thought i would do a preemptive strike here first.

Kit works great and I have all the parts to also install it onto an NC miata. That was where it was headed, a friend of mine was going to use it for his NC. But, he jumped ship to a Mini...so he doesnt need it. My BRZ is gone now (may get another, undecided) so i have a great ESC with no home.

Contact me with any interest, but I will have a classified posted sometime this weekend.

Quick query to the Phantom power users: Sojhinn, Fenton, several others you know who you are.

What's the current status for Shiv's off-the-shelf tune for our systems?
Has there been any further update after this post on 07-26-2014: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...4&postcount=58

The tune was still technically in beta status at that point... and we're now >2 years later. It's probably an opportune moment to take a pulse of what the official stance is.

Why? My ECU got reflashed by a dealership and just want to know whether to go back to the slightly modded tune I had, or revert to a Shiv OTS tune, preferably a more recent one if it exists.

Unless you got your car tuned on a dyno by someone that knows what they are doing... I would only use Shivs OTS tunes.

I know he's interested in making a flex fuel tune on the phantom, and when he's done with the NA tune he plans on switching to us.

As for a regular OTS update? Probably not. I reached out to him before and he says there isn't much more to get. That was before the 5kw system though....
