It's also always raining in England. He may have taken his time on purpose though, to emphasize fun value over speed, they do have a habit of dancing around reality to make their points.

I don't believe any of the UK drivers are especially quick. Nor do they really have any reason to be. But Tanner is fast as hell in anything you put him in. I just wish the did more stuff in TG US that took advantage of the that. Oh, and I think I know who the American Stig is (no, it's not Tanner)

Ken Block?

Yes enough top gear talk!

Does anyone else that is now running the phantom sc want to share their opinions now that they have had a couple weeks with it?

I know Rob said he has be inundated with emails for orders so it shouldn't be long before there are many many more running some e-boost.

Last I heard from Rob was he was waiting on the snails for the next production run.

Anyone with the oft and phantom sc yet that can share their opinions? I would love to see some videos of the sound and acceleration.

Looking forward to spring when I can get one... Unleash the boxer rumble.

Just a FYI for everyone I am working on a FAQ to help out Rob because he is so busy...do some people want to post questions that they think might not have been asked or what they think is the most important?

Thanks all

Ill be posting a full review next week more than likely

nlowell · 03-11-2014, 10:30 PM

I've been installed for a couple of weeks but unfortunately have been on the road non-stop. Vietnam last week and currently at 35,000 feet flying back from Dallas. I leave Thursday morning to Hawaii for a week of R&R. I can't complain but damn I want to drive the 86!!

I feel like I still need more power. I think going from e85 back to 91 at the same time as installing the OFH and ESC has effected the overall impact I feel. I'm excited to go back to e85 and upgrade to a dual dump pack. In the meantime I'm going to do some comparisons with the ESC foot switch enabled/disabled.

There are some definitive steps that will prove that it is working or not. It should be drastically different than e85 especially between 2500 and 6000.

I have sent the question to Rob. Here is a good question for my FAQ

Have you got a dyno or any exhaust clips? Would love to hear it!
