Seeing that this thread about Vitesse stuff. I would love to hear about your cams John. Probably like most of us on here, my motor is rebuilt from top to bottom except the old tired cam. Do they offer much in performance vs. an old tired cam?

That kinda happened to me. Patient walked into my office in a lot of pain, needed a tooth taken out. I sat him down and had the tooth out in under 10 seconds. He went to the front desk and when he got the bill he complained about the cost. I overheard him and said the price breakdown was $10 for me to take the tooth out, the rest came from me knowing how to take it out in 10 seconds. He paid.

I'm interested in how you can set up the boost maps to be switched with a toggle switch. Someone earlier said they're using an OEM mirror switch?

The SMT-6 (Piggy Back) allows you to run two different maps for fuel, and EBC. You can change the maps on the fly by simply grounding one wire from the SMT-6 or leaving it open
I wanted my car to look as stock as possible so I bought me a used factory mirror switch then took off the white mirror decals an used this switch to select Map A (Open) or Map B (Grounded). It looks very stock and allows me to switch between a SPORT mode and RACE mode. It works great and looks factory.

I haven't updated the site in a while, I need to add the EBC, cams, cam gears as well as a few more items now available.
The PB gives you great flexibility when setting boost. You set it based on load/rpm/boost. You can set the ramp as mild or wild as you want. Even different boost at different RPMs... In order to use the PB as a EBC, you need the V-FLEX and the solenoid we supply. We have the solenoids built to our specs so they work with the PB and do not damage it.
I can't hear an exhaust leak but AFR and everything else looks good. For now I'll have fun with the details .

Stay safe Darwin.

Kevin,
I used the switch that selects either the left side mirror or the right.

How do you do the wiring from the SMT6 to the switch?

Yes, I'm a dentist...

Check your manual it states there what wire on the piggyback it is .. you can check it easily just but that wire to ground and you will see the vitesse software change map

Yes the performance cams offer more performance than the stock cams. We offer various grinds, some more aggressive than others.
I'm not sure what you mean by old "tired" cam. However if the cam has wear issues, it should be replaced.
