Julian - Nice product, good to see more stuff come to the community (individual things like this, vs having to get an EMS to control 2-step, flat-foot, etc).

Wondering why you chose to tap into the main harness in the engine bay vs right near the ECU? Likely would've made the whole harness for the WOT box easier to route and manage. Also text in the pics is a little hard to read, but that may just be my terrible eyesight.

Just my thoughts. You should get some videos of it on the road, too (for those who have never seen flat-foot shifting in action).

as soon as we get the two step working with the julians car he will post of the video. this is an srt4 but nonetheless it will be the same for the 350
http://youtube.com/watch?v=czbaq9IA6p4

here is a video one of our customers put up on youtube .his previous best was a 12.6 and first pass with the wotbox he dropped .3 to a 12.3 and his second pass he dropped it down more and went 12.1

edit here is the link
http://youtube.com/watch?v=t3OzYeN5ckM&feature=related
we have seen gains of more than .5

name one thing that you can buy for 300 that can make your car a half second faster!

Julian,

Can you disable the box once it's installed? My goal would is to do a before/after run.

You would have to join the Ignition wire back together, or lift to shift..

So I would just shift normally and it doesn't engage? I know you said it doesn't engage until you're at WOT, so I am assuming the very second you let off the gas it disengages, correct?

doesn't the FCON already have a "flat shift" option and a 2 step option?

According to HKS the VPro does not support flat foot shifting. The VPro does have 2-step and 'anit-lag' - which is not flat foot shifting as been discussed in this thread...

Great job Julian!
