Bump it up for any updates! Definitely looking forward to this new engine management!

Also Joe, what fog lamps are you using on your tC?

Joe_Dezod

Yeah I'm looking forward to the new engine management system as well.

As for the foglights, it's nothing special. Autozone baby. My friend bought them for his Probe but never installed them. So I took one and stuf it up to my bumper. I say the blue lense, and it fit perfectly, so I fiberglassed them in from the rear. Looks like it's meant to be, and it cost me 20 bucks haha...

As for the updates... The car's at the body shop right now and the new blue I'm doing looks pretty sweet... Expect pics and a lot more updates in a few weeks.

Here's what the new blue looks like...

retrodrive

sick color...RS2 or is it different?

Joe_Dezod

it's different...

It's Alsa Corp paint, aqua blue. Also putting in the CrystalFX stuff on misc parts of the car. Should look sweet

tikbhoy

just wondering

when is the other half of the cat coming out of the bag ? expected dates ?

Joe_Dezod

No dates, as of yet... But expect pictures of a lot of things at the end of this month. Should be another couple weeks or so.

After that, it's a show, another secret, then more time on the dyno. At that point I can release more updates. I will be racing the car shortly after the new dyno runs. Definately expect big updates from us. This is about all I can talk about for now. Stay tuned!

tikbhoy

question tho, since your going to use a different computer. are you dropping the emanage off your kits ?

paul_dezod

E-man will still be in the S1 kits unless this new unit proves to be 1000% better, which it has potential to.

318_tC

can autos handle this?

paul_dezod

Our S2? I doubt it. Too much TQ. Our S1 on lower boost might work.

318_tC

i donno if I like might work....lol

I need something I can run safely for a DD, im not trying to be faassttt like 6 psi.

paul_dezod

The reasons why I say might are because we have never test fitted our kit on an auto and it making as much TQ as it does, I don't think it will be long before yoru tranny fails.

Joe_Dezod

The S1 will work on autos once we can verify fitment of the manifold/turbo/downpipe setup. I'd get a lower psi spring setup (6psi) and have a nice mild tune. Something like that should work out ok, but we still need to test for fitment.

So is the new "piggyback" still in development? ETA?

Joe_Dezod

Yeah the new system is still underway. Due to recent advancements, final testing/tuning may be sooner than expected. Either way, I'm hoping for it to be ready to sell by the first week of May. The development part is always fun.

Good to hear, looking forward to it.

well when I get my tc at the end of next month I will begin to save for a turbo. Right now I am between you and zpi, and zpi is a little ahead because they are local and I can have them install everything. I dont have a clue about turbos, I ran a roots style SC on an s10 putting down almost 700 rwhp but thats a whole nother beast. With this car I am looking to have something that as a DD I can drive reliably but when need be show a stang, or something up off a red light. But be able to go to the track and beat most of the competition. I like the g-redy set up with the piggyback that has 2 options. street map and racing map. btw, I would prefer to go with your kit, but I dont know who I would have install it. If you guys know anyone in the Saint louis area you trust tell me please.
