Well, OP is leaving Suck-rah-mento today and taking the long trip back to Utah.
This was seriously a lot of fun (sometimes more than others lol), and I can say that we have become friends after all this
There are still some issues to work out with this car, but it runs well and we got a TON of stuff done to it.
@Reverant
There are issues with the MS3 basic that OP got, in addition to the ones already outlined in the MS section thread. OP will be contacting you about those and I'll outline them more in that thread. (hint: his DB37 appears to be missing more than HALF of the inputs/outputs outlined in the instructions. not sure if those were missed or left out intentionally for some reason. also his CAN unit still acts up every now and then causing all sorts of terrible-ness in fueling)
@emilio700
There is an issue with one of the xidas on this car. front right I believe. it clunks very loudly. OP will be contacting you about them since he bought them pre-assembled and we've checked everything over 5,000 times to make sure absolutely nothing was installed incorrectly or clunking on the rest of the suspension.
Other than the above, the car is much quicker, handles amazing, and now that OP got the lip kit painted and installed, it actually looks sexier too

Oh, well that explains our confusion when we opened it up then.
Yes, I'll upload the logs we did get to the other thread.
Also it started giving an error message on the last day "unable to communicate with CAN" or something like that. I'll see if we can send you a screen shot.
Basically it completely stopped being able to datalog as of Saturday. Every time you open TS it gives you that error, and after you log the car, you open the log and it error's out in MLV saying "data corrupted or no data" or something like that. again, I'll upload screenshots.
I've no idea why it suddenly started doing that, but we ran out of time and couldn't diagnose it further. And we still couldn't hook up BARO correction because OP tried to solder in the connection and just couldn't do it.

Yah and im sure emilio and everyone has dw300s in stock too
@EO2K
Hey Gordon correct me if I'm wrong but you were running the 300 with an adjustable fpr and return system and id1k right?

The DW200 should IN THEORY be able to supply enough fuel for like 400hp with E85 but I'm not 100% sure it can do that at the base pressure I've chosen to use. The DW300 will be able to do it but I'll need to upgrade my wiring.
After speaking with the guys from Fuelab I chose the 535 series "mini" regulator because it was easier to mount and at "lower volumes" it has a better regulation slope. Please understand that "lower volume" is a relative term here, life starts for the Fuelab crew at 500hp and its usually on something with more than 4 cylinders.
I suspect you will never run out gasoline with a DW200 if the wiring is addressed. I'm making somewhere just north of 300hp on CA91 crapgas with my current setup.
If more questions, please feel free to ask!
