This has been taken into account with the development of the unit. Overrev's occuring during upshifts and downshifts will be filtered out.

Great work Mike ! Thanks

A little added info. The shifter system most of the guys are using is Geartronics, which is pneumatic not electronic. There is an electronic system, the issues with it is once the actuator becomes...

I'm always skeptical unless your comparing apples to apples, you...

Correction. They don't use aluminum, they use .003 stainless. Sorry for the misinformation.
Yes they are good and very easy to work with getting whatever you need.

There is medication to help you with that Richard. ;):D

Unfortunately KoolMat has stopped using Inconel because of the cost, they now use aluminum.

Did you use the stock ecu when you test the IIR's? I have found that most of the time these MC engine are very particular about air intake.

Thanks,

Good to know

It does appear that there is some interest ;)
