HyperSpeed Controller - Working and noticeably better already

Yup...the HyperSpeed Controller (Proto-Type Rev-II) is installed and
functioning as claimed. Much better throttle response, no overly rich
(or lean) smell from the tailpipe (home-brew A/F meter...aka: nose), and
the kicker is the lean spot caused by the supercharger at 1-2# boost
under 1/2-3/4 throttle...it's not there anymore.

It took about 50 miles for the PCM to relearn the new (corrected)
settings from the HyperSpeed controller (reset the PCM after the initial
installation) and adjusted the high-end enrichment a little bit (will
need to put back to normal in about 50 more miles or so).

The final box will be released in 90 days with a USB port, completely
sealed box (for under the hood installation), and software for your
laptop. This will allow the end user to fine-tune the fuel curve
(across the RPM band in small increment as well)...this means
programmable and automatic. Yes..you can adjust on the fly (while
driving).

I put some pictures of the Proto-Type installation on the SpeedTweaks
website (Engine Controls/HyperSpeed) but keep in mind that the final
controller will be Plug and Play with your factory O2 sensor(s).
Yes...it replaces your stock (forward) O2 sensor(s). With all this
said, it's also 100% SMOG LEGAL (CARB EO#).

I'll be heading to the Dyno shop this Friday to get some HP and TQ
readings, but the butt-dyno already noticed the change...nothing else
was installed in the mean time.
