Best to adjust it on the track during a few warm up laps. I set mine originally based on my initial street testing, but changed it quite a bit once I got it on the track. The sweet spot for me seems to be a little less than half on both duration and delay.

For anyone like me who just isn't wanting to use vampire taps or any other "splice" methodology, below are the part numbers to build a PnP harness for the C6 Z06. The parts can be sourced from mouser.com (prices listed are Mouser prices as of 4/25/2017):

APP sensor
CPA/Lock - 15317832 - $0.19 (1 req'd)
Female - 15326829 - $2.49 (1 req'd)
20-24ga terminal - 12191818 - $0.18 - (6 req'd)
20-24ga seal - 15366021 - $0.10 - (6 req'd)
Male - 15326833 - $1.68 (1 req'd)
20-24ga terminal - 15326268 - - (4 req'd)
20-24ga seal - 15366021 - $0.10 - (4 req'd)
16-18ga terminal - 15326269 - $0.20 (2 req'd)
16-18ga seal - 15366060 - $0.10 (2 req'd)

Brake sw
CPA/Lock - 15317832 - $0.19 (1 req'd)
Female - 15332132 - $1.26 (1 req'd)
20-24ga terminal - 12191811 - $0.16 - (3 req'd)
Male - 15332133 - $1.69 (1 req'd)
20-24ga terminal - 15304701 - $0.17 (2 req'd)
16-18ga terminal - 15304702 - $0.17 (1 req'd)

For the clutch switch (it uses a specialty connector which isn't readily available), I ended up just cutting both wires and splicing in a standard two-pin Weather Pack connector that I made a PnP setup for. Ditto for power/ground.

The various 16-18ga terminals are used where the AutoBlip wires need to coincide with the PnP harness wires (e.g. two wires on one pin).

I drove my student's 07Z with the auto blip installed at WGI last weekend. Really liked it. Very easy to adjust, it just took a couple tweaks to get timing and duration correct at speed. I think I'll be ordering one soon.

By the way - I've concluded that very, very few people can properly execute a Heel Toe downshift. Most of us, including me, can make it sounds perfect and hit the rev match right on. But when you look at data traces what you see is almost everyone will release brake pressure as they move the foot to do the blip. The auto blip eliminates that and results in more consistent brake application.

Just finished a weekend on track with the Auto Blip installed. All I can say is WOW! It worked perfectly on track in my 2002 Z06.

I took a driving coach out for a session and as we were coming in after the run he commented on how good my heal-toe skills were . I had to tell him that it was not me.

RDP got some awesome drive time at Chin Motorsports in an Auto-Blip equipped Camaro Z28 that we install for a customer at the Beautifully redone Pittrace in PA. The Auto - Blip work perfectly and was very easy to tune for set up. Definitly a great modification for all the venture to the roadcourse.

RDP Store loves road racing as much as you do.....right now during the 24 Hours of Lemans race our .... blipsav ..... promo code is supercharger with more savings then ever. If you were put off the $395 price tag to be able to shift like a Pro.....check out our promo code to get it cheaper then ever and reduce those lap times. This off is only good till end of the 24 hour race

Promo code doesn't seem to work, in fact neither one of them do.

Hey Buddy.....I just double check and the "blipsav" promo code does work. Problem could be is if you tried to use both at the same time which our system wont allow. Only one promo code per order. Other thing is it need s to be in all lower case. But thank you for checking in
