wow, fantastic job, makes me more eager to cross that line with my car when the time comes instead of upgrading to an Aftermarket PCM.

Great work!

This build is so sick, congrats! Just read about and watched the video on VetteTV as well.

Betting you'll be getting a lot of press on this VR!

Just a quick update.. the customer has been driving the car for the last few weeks now on the street and absolutely LOVES the new power and driveability. This car will be participating at the GA WannaGOFAST 1/2 mile event at the end of May, so stay tuned for some 180+mph trap speeds coming very soon!

They spent the R&D time, to figure out which ecu worked. . . why tell everyone?

That's called pioneering. If Joeblow1273 figures it out in his garage...share it... but business is business.

Pretty sure if guys have figured out how to use an LS based ecu in C4 LT1 based Corvettes, I am pretty sure you can figure out how to make a later model work with another late model ecu with some diligence. A pin change here or there...boom.

Otherwise,... pay da man.

Nice job on getting flex fuel working on a C5. Would you guys be interested in offering some sort of a kit?

very cool work. any chance that a wideband 02 could be retrofitted with a custom OS and tables?

I'm looking to do a haltech s2000 or ellte to go flex fuel but if a factory ECM can do it and integrate with the dash all to the good!

nice work, the car looks awesome!

No, totally different. They've utilized another computer or custom OS that came from GM with flex fuel capabilities, which has been done plenty of times.

There isn't one that uses a wideband from the factory or everyone in the forced induction forum would be using it by now.. even the C7 corvettes don't use widebands, for whatever reason. I know Ford is using them on some of the Mustangs now, but I'm not sure of the specifics
