It's official. It is 27 degrees out currently. I watched a moostang enter a roundabout, break traction almost instantly due to freezing summer tires (frost still on rear windshield) and jump the curb.

You won't regret it. With proper throttle control, it is a noticeably different driving experience. For the better

I'm going to get Seb to tweak my tune since I've added an exhaust and add the RaceROM features which weren't even available when I got my original tune.

I am looking at all the features now. I didn't know the racerom stuff is still relatively new. I am hyped to mess around with launch control (just for the cool sound it makes) and try FF shifting once before I never touch it again.

I am trying to figure out when I would actually use adjustable traction control. I need to study up on AFR since I have no clue what air/fuel numbers mean currently. Same goes for knock.

Want to buy an innovate AFR gauge? it will plug right into the extra bung I had welded onto the FI HFCs you are buying...

You should FF shifting in a '73 Dodge Dart Sport with a 500 cu. in big block Mopar stuffed under the hood with crashbox tranny and a vert gate shifter.

GOD! I miss that car.

Not too far from my house, some guy plowed into the back of several people at a stoplight exiting the highway and then proceeded to run from the scene and ended up driving straight through a roundabout jumping it Dukes of Hazard style. It's 70 degrees out.

Wai. Launch control and other racerom features won't work on touring models? Only sport models?

Talk to seb - Ecutek thinks you need the sport model (SRM features) for this stuff but there is another thread somewhere about it, relatively recent. I think Seb turned all that stuff on anyway and it does indeed work...

I really shouldn't.... Mainly because idk what the numbers would even mean for air to fuel. Nor should I spend more money...

Yea. Browsed through all the topics on it. Apparently it works on base models. I'll reconfirm with Seb next month when I begin the project. I immediately questioned why SRM would be needed considering ECUTek does the same stuff for other sports cars without SRM qualities.
