You'll love to get it stiffer!

Ruby got it when I tired of seeing pics of her rolled over on her ankles.

Precisely. I didn't realize how much body roll there was until I rode in a GT3 and felt none. Then a friend in a 964 with much better suspension followed me on the track. He commented on how much body roll my car has. Sigh. That's it... no one insults the Red Baron!

I'm back to decision time: which t-bars? which bushings? do I need new sway bars? aren't the new Bilsteins HDs good enough really? is a 911 a better investment than a 401K? should I eat one less meal a day to pay for new wheels? can you make a Cabriolet stiff enough? I can spend $3000 (again) on this car since I don't have a spouse to answer to and my dog is my only heir, right?

So, do you have any idea how easily coerced I am? You, Doug, 911Tracker, and now TA911-64 with the chip... you guys are very bad influences.

You all convinced me: I just ordered the Multiboard from Russell. Complete with 93 Octane option for the track.

Wow, what a great deal.

Russell is selling these things for less than the price of a single Steve Wong chip. It's really too good to pass up.

It really is a great price. He's got them on sale thru the end of September. I did receive mine. I love the push button switch!

I'm dying to see how you guys mount the switches and how you use them in practice. Any reviews would be appreciated.

Hold up guys you are getting way ahead of me...

Are you saying the multi-board can be plugged into a 24 pin or pre-'88 board and have all the programing versatility as the 28 pin chipset? This is just too good to be true and getting better all the time. Is this right?

I have a 24 pin DME and I have a 28 pin multi-board going in. There are 4 pins not needed that come off the end to facilitate this. It is true.

Right, Russell confirmed it. The multiboard was designed to plug into either a 24 or 28. He recommends the 4 extra pins be snipped off so they don't contact the board.

Very cool. I think Russell is really on to something.

Assuming it arrives this week, I'll install it next weekend.

I'll give it a trial run on the street and then a real work out at GingerMan on the 26th and 27th. You'll have time to get yours ordered while Russell is still giving them away

Hello, just noticed they were on sale. Now I am debating between the multiboard and the single chip.
