One question on my side... You run the Type 7 SN voltex wing - don't you have any issue with understeer, as you would have massive downforce on the rear? How did you balance it out with front aero? Or are you just running the Type 7 with minimal angle?
Thank you!
Yes, I had massive understeer due to the size. I think 1600mm would have been okay at the most minimal angle. Hopefully with an added splitter up front, it'll help balance out the car!

Hahaha in all seriousness, I should have this done by June. I'm still waiting on a few major parts like my clutch, engine harness and my dry sump pump.

Yep! That's ideally but we know how things get. Hopefully a Motec program gets written soon for your car!

Thanks! Ideally, 650-700 for the streets and around 450-500 for the track.

Got some Injector Dynamics ID2000 in! I might switch out to ID1700x since I drive e85 the majority of the time.

id2000's with m1's control drive amazing on ethanol, did it on my fa20 and the shop 2j frs is on them. even low rpm/high load is no issue so i wouldn't bother changing them out. I feel like both the 2000 and 1700 might still share some of the same low pulse width issues with 93 octane so it may not even be worth it. as far as ethanol sitting in them, i never ran 93 and all were still spotless inside. when we run c85 the seals internally do swell up and we replace and flow every season
