like to get down there myself to visit the turbo car with the new Raptor megasquirt solution.

the ls1 guys are having huge success with it on turbo implementations

integrating it with the factory dash is quite an accomplishment!

thanks for any updates
Hey Ron,

As far as the ECM goes we're just waiting on the 1990 car to be delivered to MS. They want to test the ECM on a 90 before release. George Jones is taking his car after the Holiday weekend. I feel we'll be ready within the next few weeks.

I think Corey is about ready as well and is waiting on the first ECM to tune Ron's car. Last I heard he was finishing up the custom intercooler so he has to be close...

Look for an update next week.

Cheers,
Ron

You bet...

George Jones took his 90 to the MS Guys as scheduled. During our confidence testing we found a few issues. 1. The power switch functionality needed addressed and 2. The knock sensor functionality is different on the 90 than the rest.

So, they had to do a small redesign of the board and associated software. There is now a jumper setting on the board and 1990 specific software. All the units are configurable to work with all years however we'll sell the 90's pre configured from the factory. You will be able to reconfig if needed.

As for the Turbo Systems:

Corey has fabbed up all the remaining piping. We have 8 systems on the shelf. Ron's Bidwell's 1990 twin turbo is all but finished. The 1990 configured ECM was sent from MS to Corey today. So, we should have the second Raptor twin turbo running soonest!

Corey did some changes to the original cold side design and increased the size of the turbos in order to feed the low compression 368 at higher rpm's. i don't have pics yet but the IC sounds impresive...

We should have complete pricing on the turbo system soonest as well.

Cheers,
Ron
