eh - hard to find a maroon gauge pod but i never really liked them that much anyway
Oh yeah, forgot about the interior color. And I will admit, it does raise the rice factor IMHO, but I suffer through it b/c I find it functional.

The trouble i have w/ tuning isnt as much what the car needs but how to fix it- the TUNING part- i could say "oh ok its lean up top, throw some injectors in there or something" and then be rich everywhere else" thats about as far as it goes w/o an adjustable fpr or something. Im actually better w/ carburators than w/ fuel injection when it comes to tuning- they have jets and cool ***** and screws to turn.

IF you make me a 931 nose with vents, I will wire in your zt2 and a Vitesse SMT6 and teach you how to run both simultaneously in standalone mode.

actually wiring up the zt2 should be cake- im going to install the box in the glovebox so i can open it and plug in a laptop or whatever- i can do cuztom installs- not looking forward to tracing out the wires to the ecm and splicing for signals though. The directions dont show anything 944 specific, i guess i'll have to pull the factory manual out and trace the wiring to do the splicing. I'll take you up on that offer when i get my stage 2 vitesse that should come w/ the other stuff i need.

I gave Dan that write up in his last post about the zt-2, but he doesn't like to listen to me for some reason.

Dan, I also got the boost sensor input. It's nice for being able to log what your boost is doing. The EGT looks like a good idea too, but I'm not much of a fan for pulling data from one runner and not all. If I were to do this, I'd just hook up the Laust kit.

i remember Kevin- just kinda forgot where the info was! I'll be pulling that thread back up for Tom's write up for sure. Awsome stuff- i guess he had the pins for the ecu mapped out on the link, i was mainly looking at sensor placement when i looked at the writeup. sorry geez.
