There's a few around, I think highpockets and clemsondave run em, but not sure if they are LPE. I have an old Harlan 2 step. Love it

I have the LPE LC with 2-step and timing retard feature.

The most important mod on my rear turbo setup period!

Very nice product.

As Chris said, I have the LPE. Never use it though. Are you running it on an auto or 6 speed?

I have the LPE LNC-002 and use it all the time. Works great for me. Lingenfelter was redesigning it from what I heard a few months ago, the same source said the new version was due out around now.

Mine is mounted on the front pass fender well,in front of the radiator overflow tank.The wires are only so long,we have mounted one in the glovebox but its kinda a pain.With it mounted on top of the fender,I am able to easily make minor adj if needed between rounds.Be sure to keep a pocket screwdriver or better yet,a eyeglass repair kit(very small screwdriver) to make the adj needed. Oh,and dont forget to turn off traction control before the mandatory 4.5K burnout !
