No sir, I have yet to wire up the feature so I can use it. Should be interesting if I get back to a dyno with more timing and fuel as well as lock up ready to be used.

Slowing down and making a lane change last night was the last trip. Car did a 90 left to the median. We are thinking since getting some rest after a **** ride that the tie rod may have broke. Only thing we can think of that suooorts why the car would instantly make a left turn so fast that there was no time to even attempt a correction in steering.

Holy crap man, that sucks. Hopefully you can find another roller for cheap that you can switch everything over to.

Not that I know of. But the way it snatched left, we are confident the tie rod broke or something in the front went to ****.


I do have the 89 coupe I was going to swap next. But, I have a perfect engine and trans in this white car that can go in it.

I got a white SN95 roller that's almost a clone of your car that you could buy lol. I'm pretty sure you've seen it on Facebook, I think you commented on one of the for sale ads.

Thanks guys. Tried to talk the wife in to letting me replace it with a new edge. No go. She likes the SN95. So, I'll keep looking.
