Yes. I confirmed the trip up to NY Saturday and will be there this Thursday. The sad part of this whole deal is I had to install the stock C43 coil springs for fear of dragging my undercarriage on a manhole. Looks horrible.

Could have got lost in NY or the dyno results were poor and caused a full scale deception...

Money-one: awesome conversion. I enjoy seeing projects completed that people often say "that'll never happen!" to.
ALSO...dude edit your signature. Major grammar guffaw...
"First of ITS kind," not "First of IT'S (IT IS) kind."
Great conversion.

Status update:
I went to NY the first time and they had completely forgot that I was showing up at 9:00 in the morning. So I drove 4 hours there to only turn around and drive home. The following week I made a second trip. This time only to be informed that my ECU has very poor tunning capabilities. Jeremy tried for 4-5 hours with no success. His advice was to install the 2.8 version. The bad part of that is this would involve roughly $2k in parts. That gave me something to think about during my 2 week vacation. When I got back I picked going with a Full Stand Alone system. So I got a Haltech Platinum Sport 2000. 2 weeks later the item arrived. From that point until now all I have managed to do is install a different fueling system in my car. Just trying to avoid any complications that wont allow for a full tune the first time straped down.
It has been a busy past month and have virtually no time for myself. The harness itself is pretty involved and was hoping to install it the begining of this week but I have other responsibilities that need to be taken care of first.
I will post numbers when they become available.

Were you running the Stock C43 ECU? What made your ECU un-tunable?

Always up for a good challenge. Wiring is not the issue. It's just making time for it.
Damn! 500whp is sick. I will have to see this car in person when I get it all sorted out.

Nice True, the back flame is a sure sign of running rich. Better that than too lean
