this is the best picture I have... I don't if it's useful at all to you: Attachment : IMG_5116.jpg

I can report that the MoTeC does make the car easier to drive, at least at slow speeds. I've lowered the idle to 1400 rpm, and even with that the car has more torque coming off idle... once the pedal ...

One of the neat features is that reverse is actuated by holding the downshift paddle for more than 2s. It's also required that the gearbox be in neutral and the clutch must be disengaged. No buttons o...

I drove the car around my block today. It's a risky move, but I live in a semi-rural area, and I didn't see another car on the trip. I got a couple thumbs up too! The GPRP package shifts the car perfe...

I bleed the clutch before every event... mine is still touchy, and the car was easy to stall. I'm hoping my new MoTeC setup will make the car easier to drive.

Hi Alan, I'm in Florida USA. I'm happy to separate... let me know if you're looking for something in particular.

The MAP solution was fine. The engine was genuinely only making 5 kPa of vacuum. Most of the problem was in the throttle body syncing along with the VE (volumetric efficiency) table. Now it's idling...

Happy to help if I can! Welcome to the site.

Mine is at 20-25 psi at hot idle, with idle set at 1200 rpm. Most SR8s idle at 1600 rpm or so, so it should be slightly higher.

I've replaced nearly all the car's loom and its associated bits. All the original parts came out without cutting or damage (with two exceptions). F88 ECU Complete engine loom (no cuts) Complete padd...

I found 'em, thanks Charley. $36 apiece, not bad at all.

Hey guys, I need to make some final adjustments to the throttle bodies on my SR8 DBW throttle system, and I need to balance them within each bank and across the banks before I make my final "ready for...

On my SR3 I got throttle position from the Throttle position sensor on the throttle bodies, and brake sensing was through brake pressure sensors. Right. My car had those sensors too (even before my u...

I'm working to get my SR8 back together now that I have a running car (kind of) after my fall project. Today I put the seat back in and was double-checking its position. As I worked the pedals I reali...
