Thats great. Can't wait. Glad I didn't pull the trigger for the Stillen or Level 10 VB. Keep us updated.

Also...let us know what the turnaround time is for this. Thanks

Timing for this new VB could not have been better....interested to hear how it performs in "auto" mode.

Nope....I was wrong...I think he has done both so lets see if he has a video of the "auto" mode runs

we need some good hard evidence. faster shifts should equal better 1/4 time. we need some before and after, although i think it might be too late.

On the G Forum, I asked Gurgen regarding WOT in " auto " mode, he stated; " Auto vs manual - no difference...shifts the same way. And yes, my redline is at 6900 ".

Isn't testing something for a manufacturer fun? The hardest part is keeping quiet until they say start a thread. Replying to posts is going to keep you busy.

Ain't that the truth, on both counts?!!!?!

The car was in manual mode, mostly because i wanted to keep it in gear at partial throttle when i built the rpms up to around 3k before going WOT.

This VB is MUCH more involved then what Stillen and/or Level 10 does. We are not just drilling out passages and replacing springs. A LOT of testing and research went into this to make it the best available on the market. I will have more information very soon...stay tuned

It most definitely is, and by FAR the only real game in town.

The car is an absolute blast to drive... it's insane... well worth it.

No video in AUTO mode...but I will try to make some today... no promises.

YEs, unfortunately I had not gone to the track lately..However, given my many datalogging sessions, I will go back and get my logs (which are pretty high res) and measure the shifts time, before and after. I am sure that I will have some 2-3, and 3-4 shifts logged, jsut not sure about 1-2's.

if this fixes the WOT + FI + 5AT problem this will be a must have mod for a lot of people.

So will this be a core program, or what?
