Haven't had the opportunity to try it yet... Is it a pain in the butt to put a Racerender overlay on videos? The video above would have been interesting to see the TC doing it's thing.

Would love to see it on all future cruise/tune/dyno vids. Pretty awesome additon if it's not that big of a deal on your end. I look forward to having some logs and footage myself, but will continue enjoying yours now and in the future. Keep it comming

Hey Matt, if you had a DBW TB, could you do traction control with MS3 by throttling the engine as opposed to pulling timing? I know alot of OEM's use this technique. Not sure if they couple that with timing retard or not as well though.

Last I knew, the Megasquirt Extra/Megasquirt 3 code writers were vehemently opposed to having their code control DBW.

The liability for something like that would be tremendous. One accident could destroy the entire company.

Didnt even consider that. I suppose Holley has the ***** to do it. They are huge in comparison though company wise.

Nevermind, I just found out that Holley V4 now supports Ethanol feedback with closed loop fuel & timing adjustments. I think I just decided what engine management to buy.

Keep the Rado progress going Matt!

450+ miles on the truck this week, i have been daily driving it, today had my first failure, easy fix though, these inline fuse holders are junk, even if they look high quality they always fail.
fuel pump fuse melted in the holder and never blew, wiring and everything is fine.
had to strip the wires and jump over to Ike's Airport Garage for a quick fix haha thank you Mitch Eisenhart and everyone else there for the wiring terminals and 10mm
ended the day with 455miles should be a few more by the end of the night, not bad for the street truck
