I'll second or third that one, its what really got me thinking of T5 for my 900. Megasquirt is nice because of the free software but its hard to beat OEM reliabilty and now the ability to tune T5.

ECUproject.com has different tuning maps for T7. Workshop information system for T7 and T5 should offer some edification on how the systems work. This is floating around the interwebs. Google saab wis...
There is no such thing as too low or too stiff.

So, people have moved on from shaving door handles and taillights, to shaving engine bays now?

Max, its a really clean look, i'll get some pics as soon as i get some time, and find a camera. make the motor look like its floating if u shave the bay n tuck the harness, i've always thought it was a really cool idea, i'm rEALLY weird with the clean look, i've even spent the time to shaved the screw holes on the tailights.

heres some shaved engine bay pics from where i got some ideas...

yeah the shaved engine bay is a really cool look i think i takes alot of time and thinking, but i should have it done in a couple more weeks.
the hovering engine look is so flipping sick though...
chip foose has been doing it for yrs now on his street rods.
and they win riddlers...
