Okay so I went out and got alittle crazy in the mountians last night. It must just have been that I was in manual mode the other day, because last night she sure did kick in when I need her to. The Light lit and the car took off like normal. So I would say all is fine.
Thanks Chris |

That's good news Chris.
It is real easy to push on that Manual switch, and not realise it is on. Glad you did not have a problem. Joe

Glad you found the problem.
When I first got my car I was always a little tenative with the throttle. The power light never came on. I had to learn to be fast with my foot to the floor. Back to the drag strip? Leave it in first gear. The shift to second is a little higher than in power mode. Automatic over-rev protection. |

First. If you want to try it out, do the resistor mod. It takes about as long as your signal removal took at the track. Just unplug it (right near the battery). It will always be in power mode after that...in case you are wondering. Second. Why the heck didn't you call me!?!?! I could have used a little mountain run after spending all yesterday packing. Ryan

Try it out and note what max revs it shifts on, and that it does it consistently. If the over-rev protection circuit fails, which is possible, you will blow your engine. Even without blowing the engine, you will be stressing seals in the tranny. But it's good fun though!! Joe

A tech told me it is the throttle sensor, another electric marvel, we are not supposed to be so quick footed.

i am running with the resistor mod.
it does not leave your car in the power mode at all times. it makes the tranny shifts firmer. it basically take the coupe shifts away and allows the car to shift much more agressively and a lot less soft. i like it because it makes the car feel like it is launching out of first and second gear.
