for now just the 5 knob S-AFC, it'll run fine, just as long as i'm not boosting a lot. Soon i'll be getting DSM Link.

Well at least with those 8.3:1 Wisecos you'll be able to take advantage of the fact that the fiddy trim is a pump gas warrior by running a decent amount of boost on pump, just don't let Rick tune it...

Hopefully it doesn't have ARP mains.

do you even have a logger cable for the 5 knob? The safc itself cant be used to tune very well at all. Even with the 2g logger, the car cant be tuned the best.

no it doesn't have arp mains, and why not let Shindley tune it?

Rick has done good work for me, but I've heard some stories.

I'm curious what Rick means about the 2g oil pump in a 6 bolt to keep the crank sensor?

Cause personally the oil pump has nothing to do with the crank sensor, and a oil pump out of a 7 bolt will work just fine in a 6 bolt without any modifications.

Now if he modified the case cover I am still curious on how this is done. If anyone can elaborate for me, that would be excellent. I would ask Rick but it seems as if whenever someone asks him a question, the way he answers always makes him look like a foolish moron. You'd think a guy like that who wants business and respect would have a little more professionalism in his replys whether he is just screwing around or not.
