You guy who have the factory SBEC and the MP SBEC could probably make a cool
modification by having both computers on board, toggling from
factory/learned easy cruisn' fuel efficency, to foot rompin'/learned
acceleration, using a multi-reed relay to switch back and forth.
A couple of 24 conductor relays, some sockets that plug into the SBEC's and
your in bussiness, just be sure to keep current to both engine controllers
at all times.
Imagine decent fuel economy to drive to work, then at a stop shut your
engine flik a switch and WOW :-)
