The purpose of taking it easy for the Piggy on the CVT, is for the ECU to calibrate to the way he drives or something?

Anyone?
All RRM piggybacks have a "learning period" - I'd assume it relates to that.

ahh. ok.
Thanks, D.
I figured as much, but was not sure.
Not familiar with the piggies. Only what they can do.

Wow. So...the CVT is done.
I guess we wait and see how it works out for the next couple of days.

He is just letting it learn a bit. Good news is that it is READY! IF you want one just call and order. Thanks to MIke for stepping up.

127 mph?
how did the car feel just gettin to that point?
I had mine up to 115 mph for 3 hours from Miami. And she handled real well.
On that day driving for 3 hours constantly at that speed, i was shocked how well i was able to slow down and accelerate back to 110 mph mark.
With no mods, i was impressed for a 152hp car.
I think i the piggy is going to be my first mod.

The car was smoooth, no vibractions. I was at 110 in 4th gear. The car is great once you get the rpm up. You can feel every little bump in the road at that speed.

You should get the piggy.

I am going on a long trip to day, about 250 mi. I will give an up date when I get back.
