Default Delteq?

I remember a while back they said they would have a kit to 100% eliminate the opti, have they decided not to do it?

it seems it would be hard to do using the factory computer. I say f.a.s.t. would work great with it.

that might be the only way to totally get rid of the OPTI. i call delteq and they said that they have been working on that for a very long time and did not indicate that they might ever release a kit that elimiates the OPTI. he said that it was not as easy as it seems with the OE computor.

baileys is too exspensive. the kit it self is not that much but it is not plug and play. you have to find 8 LS1 coils on your own. MSD has a kit with all 8 coils for 500.00 and change. even after martket non performace coils are around 40 some dollars each.
