Yes, after an arduous fabrication fest, 80tqEFI is up and running! Honestly
the most frustrating part of the whole project was getting a laptop that
would work with the software (what do I expect using old outdated laptops!).
The car runs super smooth, amazing the improvement in smoothness over CIS,
throttle response is instantaneous. The car runs and feels like an injected
multi-port american V8, the most noticeable improvement being the top-end
performance, pulls like a raped something or other right past 6k RPM to 7K.
I attribute this to mostly the lack of intake restrictions, considering a
cone filter is essentially clamped onto the inlet of the turbo and the huge
VR6 throttle body/intercooler.
Currently boost is set to 5psi till I get all the maps dialed in, but
performace is unbelievable compared to my "old rally" beater 4kq I have been
driving the past few months. =)
I will keep you all updated as boost creeps to the 20psi mark!
Feeling a little "giddy"

ps-I will bring it to luch today for any Bay Area listers planning on being
there.
