put a horn-sensitive remote disabler in Alberto's unit so when the unit hears 3honks it slows his car way down.



j/k

You are way too fast in those videos Alberto - nice job I would've thought Sharif would have had the edge with his ATS rear diff. to eliminate wheel spin.

Alberto, I don't have any more at the present time, but I will be making more soon.

Quadcam, have you got any CELs or anything? Good to hear you are enjoying it!

Oh, I got something for Alberto next year. Actually, we discovered that when I switched to an 5MT ECU for testing, it doesnt crack the throttle open right away. Alberto drove my car, and was like WTF is that delay between shifts. Alberto...that was the issue! It should be fun next year!

What's a 5MT ECU? You stuck a 5AT ECU in your car?

Yeah, well after we figured out which correct harness to look at cause of the Fcon and Alpine Brain Unit and what not being in the way, it was easy. Too many wires down there, LoL. Just cut back that black tape, sorted through the 50 or so wires on the harness and found the correct ones, snip here, splice there, wrap up and done with. It seriously was a 10 minute job taking apart the panels, wiring it up, and putting it back together. Then immediately hit the highway for some testing since it was only 2 seconds away and had some fun in all different gears and RPM ranges.

I'd have to say this mod and the hood dampers are some of the best inexpensive mods yet that made some of the biggest differences overall.
