I would recommend this box to anyone. I may have a few in the area interested but it would not be till next spring as its getting cooler and the cars will be done in a few.

I pulled a code 2 and 4 on the way to work then a code 3 on the way home. i would go in and replace the optical sensor but the car pulls no codes under normal driving conditions. However the car pops between shifts, some louder then others. It never did this when the ignition was working propar.
Starting to think i should have done it right the first time instead of buying a cheap substitute. If I cant get this thing to work by the end of August im just going to throw a crank trigger and cam sensor in the car. never had this much bad luck with just the optispark

The stock opti does not have enough energy to fire 600+hp I dont have a 6a laying around along with a coil. Why come on the forum whining about it? why does anyone post on this forum, to inform, and help others that may have similar problems down the road. Dont get me wrong bob is a great guy to work with, but as I said this post may help another down the road.
Brady thats what im thinking hall-effect with crank trigger if this does not work. the hall seems like a better idea then the drilling into the cam gear.

FWIW, it wasn't my ignition fuse, it was my injector fuse. I checked the ignition fuse immediately but didn't bother to check the injector fuse (1/2" apart)... That one goes into the "lessons learned file"..

What did you do to fix your problem?
DUHHH...bigger fuse!
I'm maxed out on my 83# injectors.. I upped the rev limiter and popped a fuse.. I guess it was the straw that broke the camel's back.. I asked @ TB.com and Craig said it could happen.. My car has a single fuse, it was a 15A from the factory and I popped it. I put in a 20A and it's been good ever since.
Good luck

Yeah I ended up putting 2 10amp fuses in and have not had a problem with it yet. My 72#ers are at 94% duty cycle, I cant turn the boost up any higher then 18psi until I get my hands on some 96#ers. Brady you got any numbers(dyno/track 1/4 mile) out of your car yet?

Bob I sent you a PM requesting the correct wiring diagram for 93's, but if you get this first fine, could you post here the correct procedure or wiring for a 93 in that they are not the same wiring as what's listed in your instructions.
Honestly I don't understand why both sets of diagrams would not be included in your kits if it's so easy to cause damage in your LTCC box. Simple solution or improved instructions/wiring diagram would perhaps solve at least some of the LTCC damage problems I've been reading thus far. Just a suggestion.
Thanks

Been running my LTCC on the 93 for over a year.....on motor and spray...should be running on the blower by Tuesday afternoon....just buttoning everything back up now. I don't have my LTCC manual handy.......can I feed off of the white wire for my autometer shift light?

Arnie.
I know of a few bugs that came up and followed them as Bob promtly fixed them
As a mechanic you also under stand just because it worked flawlesly in one case does not mean it was with out flaws
EVERY person i have had contact with said Bob was the best at customer service.
