Thanks again

Curt, first let me apologize for not seeing this earlier...
ProEFI, all I can say is wow... Granted there were some hurdles to get it workin but WOW...
The biggest hurdle was the traction control... It appears that the software for traction control was written based on the 12' - 13' model year ECM / BCM
It wasn't reading the front wheel speed sensors. Chris Delgado of D3 Engineering in Houston made a couple of trips to our shop, and worked the problem. We were told repeatedly it was a wiring issue... Chris is big with ProEFI... He checked everything and said it was proper... After numerous attempts to solve the issue, he pulled the base file down and sent it to Jason in Arizona, the owner of the company and software writer.
It only took a little while for Jason the realize the discrepancy and write a patch to install... Holymolybbqsammiches... I can't wait for the new motor and the next mile...
I set a half mile record with no traction control and street tires... At 183.7 mph, then popped the motor at the 3/4 mile mark at 217 or thereabouts...
With everything working, the new motor and road racing slicks, the next mile run should be interesting to say the least...
And in the spirit of this thread, I'll release the components of my new build after it's in the car tested and proven... I've no doubt we will destroy the current standing mile record for 5th Gens... And most any other car as well...
