I can truly say I haven't driven a car that is more fun to drive!

I am assuming that you use the ECUTEK ? I am about to switch over to ECUTEK myself.

Hey hotrodz, launch control on ecuteks pretty bad ***. The longer u hold it the more boost it makes off the line. Flat foot shifting can be done at slow speeds as long as ur gas pedal is steady. Pushing the clutch in fast seems to work the best. And its pretty damm hard to reprogram the human computer bc i always forget about it when driving hard.

LMAO...I don't want to go slow and it hard enough to remember to VDC off. I think it should be the other way around...press VDC on!

And thanks for the compliment, your ride is pretty hot as well!

I had the same questions regarding the operation of the EcuTek Launch and Traction Control functions and operability ...
Did a quick Search and found some You Tube videos demonstrating just how this system works ... works EZ and it is user friendly for the Launch settings.
Don't know how the Slip control will set since it hijacks the Oil Temp gauge.
I've got a custom gauge set up and the OEM Oil Temp/Voltage/Clock cluster is history...working on a solution utilizing a rotary switch which should even be a better way to do it.

Waiting to have my car up and running hopefully within the next few weeks so I can try it out and attest to it personally!

I need to find some 100% ethanol so I can get back to E85 faster if I had to use 93. Lol

I had to use some 91 to get home from Cali on Sunday and it knocked it down to 52% and there was a quarter of a tank left. I parked in the garage and have driven her until today after filling up with e85. She is at 73% now so game on. I'm headed to Vegas for the weekend and I'm hoping to get her close to e85 as possible and keep her there.
