Looks like you have a good setup there. It looks good and that is a great spot for it!

Hmmm so the launch control is a rev limiter basically? And explain how the whole race fuel switch works, I'm confused. Do you have two PCMs and it switches between the two? As far as I know you can only have one file per PCM.

Okay got to the bottom of the race fuel switch issue you brought up. There is in fact only 1 pcm and your correct you can only write on file per pcm. So Matt said essentially my car is always on a 104 race tune. Yet when the switch is off it retards my timing 4 degree's through the MSD ignition timing module letting me run 91 octane.
The MSD unit also provides the Rev Limiter ability for the launch control situation.

LOL, so much I don't know about things such as these because I did not build the car.
But hey thats not what I do for a living and already lost one engine on the 2nd build from a shop who claimed they knew what they were doing. Paul's who built the car do know what they are doing... I'm just a tile / stone contractor...

Oh ok, got it. Thanks for the clarification! That timing module is pretty handy then. Good deal. Seems like a legit setup you got there. I wish I had one of those for like a valet switch or something, just retard timing like 15* so they don't try anything stupid in the parking lot lol

Hey it's all good Dave. Tile is an art for sure if one cares about what they are doing. A person upgrades to tile for the longevity of it for one and performance needs to be there for use comfort. I would tend to believe the kitchen floor substrate was flat but NOT level thus your now seeing things roll down hill as they follow the grade on the tile surface. If they had to actually level the floor you might have ended up perhaps and inch higher than the adjoining floor covering, carpet, wood, vinyl etc. Hopefully the install was proper in that they gave you structual integrity and a good bond. Now you always have to go up hill to fetch a pail of water.... LOl
