This is a really cool thread. Has anyone considered using the wheel speed sensors to determine wheel slippage, so boost can be adjusted for optimal hookup? You would look at the speed of the front wheels, and compare them to the rear. I know megasquirt supports this but I'm sure it could be done easily with an arduino.
Shawn, is yours still using the arduino bootloader or has it morphed into a more proprietary/commercial product at this point?

The EBC no longer uses the Arduino, so no boot loader. It does use a similar processor however. Sorry if not clear but this will now be a commercial unit as Rogue Tuning is involved. I handed the project to him and have helped with testing and enclosure design but received no financial benefit. I really just enjoy working on this stuff. I was struggling to make the project do what I really wanted it to do. Joshua got involved and I think what he has done with it will be very valuable to the community.

I'm sure it will be very slick when all is said and done. Was hoping for a megasquirt-style grassroots platform we could all work on, but totally understand it's no simple task. I may still post mine up in the style of my speedometer calibrator if I'm not stepping on any toes... Still a work in progress for now though.
That way, if you desire, you can try doing an open-source software effort using quality hardware...
