Your worst nightmare...
Whats price? Wonder how this would fare up with my Black series turbos. Who knows I might keep them and pick up a dirt cheap CL65.

I think you're asking if the ECU gives you full control over fuel and spark timing? Yes, it does.

Retail will be just under $15,000 for the full PKG (includes coil conversion, harnesses, and more- plus a few hours worth of support/tuning time). Thinking of doing a group buy similar to the E55 one.

DBW = drive by wire? No. Cruise control stalk is used to cycle through modes, so yeah- I guess so.

That box doesnt look familiar what system is it based off of. For me I cant really see paying that much for that system when its just another standalone. I am sure people who are not DIY guys wouldnt mind paying that much for something that is wired in easily. I was kinda hoping it was more integrated and would run cruise and some of the other stuff that people want to keep. This car is more my daily driver and I have a couple other race cars that dont need cruise or stuff like that. What are you guys doing for trans control?

Anyone have any information on this build?

Bigger charge coolers?

Turbos?

Output?

Somehow I've missed this one through the years.

Always a bummer when companies who reached for interesting projects flame out.

Did you do anything fun and exciting with your Black Series turbos?

I'm looking for more headroom in my 279 powered car.

Oh.... Seems this individual hasn't been back since late 2023.
