i'm glad everyone likes it.
I have gone through a lot to get this 14 the way it is. hopefully our driver wont crash it into a wall on his first outing......knock on wood!
he says he has some experience, we will find out for sure in about a month.

normally i wouldnt but i built this specifically for competition in drifting and road racing.
i wouldnt mind driving myself but its been a long time since i went drifting.
i would rather have someone with much more experience drive the car and actually be competitive than to drive myself and not do well at all.
i would like to be able to tell all the people that have supported me and waited for over a year that i did my best and chose the right people to do the right job.
my job, when we go racing, will be to manage all the events and logistics.... i wont be able to super size my fries for a while. everything will be coming out of my own pocket.
we'll still have alot of fun, thats the second biggest reason i did it for.

i talked to aim the other day. i was gonna get one of those also. oddly enough. thay told me they didnt have it set-up to hook direct to the ecu yet. did you get the harness with sensors and hook direct to the various sensors you were gonna use.

we dont have a specific harness kit just yet. we used most of the sensors from AIM sports. I have put together some harness kits and sensor packages so that the installation will go smooth. we can also weld in a bung in to the thermo. housing so you can intall your temp sensor there.
PM me so i can give you more details.

just swapped out the MXL STRADA digital dash to the PISTA unit.
now we will have full data logging capabilities. 47 hours total
so far my dash can read:
speed
rpm
water temp
oil temp
oil press.
fuel press
boost
egt #1
egt #2
fuel level
batt. volt.

lap time
gear position

I dont know if there is anything else i need to monitor. i think i covered it all.
