Default Holley SNIPER EFI Software Update: Progressive Linkage Support

For anyone who's got the Holley SNIPER EFI system, the firmware updates that Holley released at the end of last month now provide support for progressive throttle body linkages to make those throttles less touchy.

See Chris Myer from EFISystemPro.com's Blog Entry for the Geeky details: https://www.efisystempro.com/efi-pro...rmware-updates

My kit is on the Way! I think it will cure a few issues I have with my Sniper.A touchy throttle and occasional pop when I floor it.
A too lean misfire gremlin can't get rid of. Gradual application of right foot no problem,but no Fun! Alohas !

Progressive linkage installed along with the updated software..Wish they would've had this setup from the beginning! Wayyyy smoother throttle response...Having a slight issue after the install,seems to pop going downhills in gear..Sent message to supplier told me to increase the secondaries % by a few.Will see if that cures the issue..Other than that runs sweeter than ever ....
