Steve just installed one a few weeks ago. I can have him get in touch with you.

On the Vitesse it depends how long it takes you to crawl under your steering wheel/dash. You unhook the wiring connector above your gas pedal, snap the V wiring so the controller is inline, route the wires out of the way (zip ties) and place the controller where you want it. Takes less time than changing your oil... unles you get stuck under your steering wheel/dash!

Robert, I know the last time I saw you at the monthly meeting we were jokingly considering getting Heartbeat superchargers... well, I came close.

I just sent in my deposit on a ADM LSA/LS3 kit with SW Speed in New Mexico. Adding on a LS9 blower cam, ZL1 pump, ADM FPCM, and 85cc injectors.

Your turn!!!

I've been sitting here the last few days debating my options; a new Gen 6, a C7 Vette, or a Heartbeat blower on what I got. I want to start hitting the track again, and don't want to do it in a convertible Camaro.

I have one. Makes for a fun ride! For a stock vehicle I think it's a must-have. But I'm sure that once I cross the 500rwhp/500rwtq line I'm not gonna want such a quick pedal.
It is not hard to install, once you shimmy your way under the dash! I installed mine in about 12 minutes, including tucking the wire under the center console. I just mounted mine on the side of the center console just forward of my seat.
SP5 makes it feel almost like a cable is directly linked between the pedal and throttle body, anything higher makes for a throw your head back ride, but the butterfly is probably wide open with the pedal only half pressed.
