I’m hoping it has a solid positive impact as long as it doesn’t turn out like the last trans swap Watching Wingman’s 1st-6th pull POV and listening to a couple of those 10 speed auto Mustangs last weekend has me hyper aware of how much slower I’m shifting lol.

Curly, you did post those guys’ site a couple pages back but then I derailed all the trans talk with that race report. Sorry, lol. I’ll grab one of those manual park release mechanisms from them. Would very much like to be able to move my car around without turning the engine on. I was originally thinking of making some kind of bracket to lock the lever in the disengaged position, but it’s probably better to retain the pawl function so as not to have to rely on the handbrake after track sessions, etc.

Wasn’t gonna post any updates today but since I’m here I might as well. Brought the car to work this morning to do an oil change and give everything a once over. While I was there, I mounted the MAXX on the parcel shelf and started cutting up the larger of the two harnesses it comes with. I don’t have the necessary depinning tool, so I just trimmed all the circuits I’m not using down to about 4 inches. Clipped the outputs for the cylinder 5-8 injectors and ignition coils, as well as a couple extra inputs and outputs (this thing has a LOT of extra I/O). Wrapped the remaining portion of the harness in convolute and will drill the firewall and run it through next week.

Conveniently, my car has an unused connector right next to the ECU, which I believe was for the rear window defroster. All four pins have switched 12V present, so I’ll splice those together and use them for power.
