LTCC box is up and running!
Houston, we have LTCC!
Fired right up! Amazing what a difference there is if you wire it up correctly
Differences:
Idle - MUCH smoother
Cruising RPM - smoother
WOT - dunno. It's stinking raining here
Thanks to Bob Bailey for his excellent product and craftmanship. Oh, and I would be completely remiss if I didn't state the incredible customer support Bob has provided from the get go. Last week (Feb 23rd) I sent him an email at 10:22 pm (Sunday) asking what I had done wrong when the box didn't seem to work. He responded about 9 minutes later. I miswired the EST (Electronic Spark Control) wire due to a misunderstanding/misinterpretation of the wiring instructions. This fried a chip. Bob knew immediately what had happened when I told him the two diagnostic LED's (one's red, the other green) in the Box illuminated at 'key on' and they remained illuminated.(They are supposed to illuminated briefly at 'key on'). He told me to ship the box and harness back to him and he'd check it out. I priority mailed the box/harness to him. He got it, diagnosed it ,re-chipped it and put it on his car to test drive around for a day. He reported that it ran like a champ and he'd be shipping it back. I told him to tell me what I owed for the rechip and 2 day Fed Ex to get it back to me. He said, "no charge". I got the box/harness back in 2 days, FedEx. No charge. Unbelievable in this day and age of "F*ck you" customer service we're all, unfortunately, familiar with.
I drove the car to work today. Woot! I'm going to finish up a comprehensive install write up with pictures to help numbskulls like myself that might wire the "White" ESC incorrectly.
Thanks Bob!

Will do. I have pictures of my homemade brackets but I want to take them off and finish the final trimming so they look good. Also I need to reshoot some pictures after I've wiped down the engine compartment. Photos always seem to reveal dirt I don't notice at the casual glance.
