Got Switches?
Updating my system to reflect on the fly tune swap using the valet mode for nitrous specific tables...more on that when I get it working
I may be able to squeeze a BAP switch in there this summer, but that will about do it for real estate!
For now, thought I would share the new panel I am gonna use
Got some dremeling to do

Thanks, I have a local engraver cut them for me, I draw it up, send the file to the engraver and he laser engraves em
Kind of dabble in the panels now as a hobby. Done a bunch of Nitrous stuff for C-5's and F-bodies.

Looks awesome!
Do you know if there is a wire/pin slot that enables the "performance mode" shift table for us A4 guys? I know a few GM trucks had a haul/tow button which had the ECU change the shifting points. Thought it would be cool to toggle a street friendly shift table and a shift table that stays in the optimal gear.

Yes, keep in mind I have to play the non-sponsor game.
I make these as a hobby (I like the graphics side of it), and don't sell enough to warrant becoming a sponsor. I have PM'ed a few sponsors to see if they were interested, but the only takers have been on LS1tech.
So far most request have been Nitrous related, Although I did send one out last week that was not Nitrous Related to John Shields
.
I usually run off a batch once or twice a month, next batch will be first week in Feb.
Here is one I did for Phil, dont know if he used it or not. He was the test case for the first full face and never got back to me.

Is that black anodized krinkle finish aluminum? Can you do that on smooth surface? The C5 emblem looks OUTSTANDING

No its standard textured laminate. I did dabble in Aluminum but its not cost effective (yet).
Here is a sample
