Did it arrive Ted??????

Not yet. Expect that it'll sit in customs for awhile before they allow it to go through. You know, "Might be a Terrorist Bomb" so it needs to sit in a warehouse so that the Gov can justify raising every cost of living, like mail, shipping and fuel costs - same as your Gov I suppose.

Ever get to Alabama? I would mind seeing if the SCT could work on my Roe :2tu:

Being a Tuner with many years of tuning experience,
I am 100% confident the SCT will work just fine on your ROE kit.
When I said I have no experience with the Roe kit, its exactly that.

However, I do have experience with tuning N/A vipers with SCT
and I do have lots of experience with KB chargers on both intercooled and non intercooled cars, trucks, even boats.
I just didnt want to come over to your forum talking smack and putting people on the defensive, as it looks like I have .

You are the only one on the defensive
I'm just questioning some of your assumptions

Thanks for the offer Vince! Once this things gets glued back together, the tuning is going to be my biggest concern since I think with the cam and all, a SCT will need to be part of the equation. Man I'm itching to get back on the road...but still no rods and these cars don't go too far without rods. Regardless, I would think one of the tuner would have figured a boosted GEN II SCT tune out at this point. If not, there must be some real tough RPM and Load tables to work through given all the vacuum vs boost vs RPM vs load offsets. I just don't have the time/patience to head down this path personally right now. I am usually more than willing (Like Bottlefed) to go it alone on some of this, but figuring out the SCT in a boosted application is just too time consuming for me right now. But being the cheap-ass that I am, I really don't want to pay a tuner to try and figure it out on my dime either. Been there done that in another life. More than willing to pay for proven & hard earned intellectual capital, but I don't think anyone is there yet. You could BE THE MAN if you can get there first. Willing to work with you on this in the near future and see what the outcomes can be. We are anxious to get this SCT thing figured out for ROE applications. I'm really sensitive about the tuning on this set-up..and once I get back on the road , I think I'm at the point that the VEC cannot support the tuning needs (unless proven otherwise).... and I'll be broke, single, and living out of a box if I gernade this thing again.

Ellow...I was on the phone with Greg Good earlier. Do you need to reach him still? Call his shop phone. I can PM it to you if you don't have it.

Nope. All set. Prefer not to bother Greg with my Q&As. Let him support paying customers..LOL. Really though, he'd bend over backwards for about anyone so I'll save that call for a later date.

Update is that I did recieve the AEM I bought from BAZ.

BAZ did get an SCT tune on his 2.4L (747rwhp I think) from DC Performance.

Macedo Motorsports was working on a 2.8L instal and tune a 2.8L on a custom GTS.
