Well, total surprise..but my stage (1) arrived today.
(I ordered it dec 26th fyi).

First impressions:

The install instrutions aren't 110% clear, well.. that and I'm a dumb ass.

(Canzoomer, you shoudl REALLY clairify where the plugs go.. specifically).. I had to re-read the destructions 3 times to get it right..

The On/OFF... switch.. WHAT direction is ON versus OFF?? I "think I got it right (my butt dyno says so), but ... trunk or front?? Should be more clear.

First impressions-- 7000+ no longer is linear, it continues to pull.. I am able to break traction (DSC off) on dry pavement shifting to 2nd significiantly.

I will have to pop off the over and switch from on to off and to some G-Tech readings.. (5-65 instead of 0-60 to avoid wheel hop factors). I'm also going to race a friends RX-8 (stock) tomorrow at lunch a few times to a/b.

So far though, it seems (according to my ass) to be faster... not like a LOOOOT but... faster.. more pull through the RPM range.

Strange... My unit was marked with a 0 and a 1 (written on with a magic marker) so it was easy to tell.

Toward the back of the car is on, toward the front is off.

Day (2) ... well, more like day 1 since I only got to run around for a few minutes last night with it.

Its very cool... whats REALLY interesting is I had a 'ringing' sound before at 6700 rpms and 8000 rpms (on WOT running up through the rpm range), which is now gone.

Its very noticible above 6000 rpms compared to stock-- before (while it pulled), I didn't feel an increase in acceleration from 6k-9k.. as in-- continuing to pull harder as rpm's rise. Now, it does.

Thumbs up on the mod!

i'm glad your happy. Sorry about the on off thing someone forgot to mark yours. Anyways towards the connectors is on.
