I timed my 0-60 3 times and this is what I got

Without PB (AC on)- 11:340
With PB(AC on)- 11:404
With PB(AC off)- 10:583

I was running with 93 octane.

I know the times aren't all that accurate.
Am I supposed to gain more?

thanks

Uhh i hope you didn't leave the wires like that...please tell me you taped them..

WOW. THAT IS NOT INSTALLED> Those wire carry such small voltage, even milivolts. No way that is gonna work correctly. IF you cannot install it correctly go to a pro. That is the worst install I have ever seen!!!!! Seriously. I am not trying to make you feel bad but install like that makes us look bad and is awaste of your time. Call us if you need some tips but instructions pretty much tell you how critical the connections are!!

What's wrong with those connections? Aside from not being sealed from each other, they are all getting a good connection if you ask me. Sure they're not soldered, but the wires are stripped on a fair enough lenght, and they seem twisted fairly tight.

they appear to be twisted on (some of them) very sloppy. solder would be most effective; but not all of us have acess to a soldering gun. i dont think it's the worst i've ever seen but there is room for improvement.

Looks like it's hooked up for just testing. Regardless, Soldering isn't actually necessary, but some Electrical tape should always be used, even if it's just to test the connections. Never leave the connectinos open like that, cover them to be safe.

What would happen if one of those connections just happen to touch one another by mistake while the car is turned ON and you're looking away?

Black Tape! USE IT

The car was off, battery disconnected when that picture was taken. I had JUST taken it off and pictures were requested to make sure I was getting the right wires. I just connected that for pictures and took it back off. I actually had it on there right when I was using it. That was JUST FOR THE PICTURE. I'm not that stupid, no worries.

I had NO intention of making RRM look bad in any way. Once again, this connection was ONLY FOR THE PICTURE. Not for use!!!
