Only for MT for now.

The problem is the tune. Memory addresses need to be discovered for most of the US MT and AT cars, to communicate with the sensor. Once those are discovered they can be added to the appropriate definition files and the tunes can be made. Then the kit can be released.

I believe so

The kit is out. The tune is not. Purchase directions point to OFT's custom E-Tunes page, and specify they are currently only available for MT's. So, they are still needing the correct memory addresses to use the kit with all CAL ID's. I would love to help create the tunes for AT's, but can't afford it right now.

do you know where i can get an aux charger @Sojhinn?

KoolBRZ · 08-21-2016, 03:50 PM

I had an aux charger and it didn't do a bit of good. The problem was the batteries. They just didn't recharge quick enough for my liking. The 600 watt audio batteries recharge so quickly, if I'm not paying attention, I miss it completely. That also means the charge doesn't last as long though. So ask yourself, which means more to you, quick dump with quick charge, or slow discharge with slow recharge.

I'm sorry but that's not true. The aux charger makes a pretty big difference depending on the setup. On the setup I first had the aux charger: it reduced charging time by 50% and on my current setup I've sped up charging by 80%-100%.

More importantly the amount work the controller does is reduced which helps reduce the chances of hitting thermal limits.

The aux charger may not be for everyone but to state it doesn't do anything is wrong.

But don't just take my word for it... Feel free to ask others who have it.

version 1.5. I was thinking of getting some new batteries as well (the big crank). will it work with the old batteries as well? @Sojhinn

Based on my experience I would snag 3x PC 680s... 1 for the starter two for dump packs and forget the big cranks. Just cap the .5 connections and call it a day. With that setup you shouldn't need the aux charger per Rob.
