Didnt' realise people weren't allowed to take an interest in things that are happening on the forum. Do I have a Cup Racer; no. Do I know people that do who may be interested; yes. You've said you've got it all working, so I would say asking to see it is a fair request. Chip, Do you know...

Good job. Any chance of a video at some point so we can see everything working on the dash?

M-from-Germany, sorry from straying off topic, but just noticed a couple of replies I wanted to address. Re-read my post, I made no comments about sourcing other products and comparable pricing. This is something you've come up with all on your own. Yes, the price of the Gen90 could well be...

Wow, nice to see playground levels of maturity (and intelligence) prevailing here! The maturity I can't help you with, and seeing as you've failed to in any way back up your "overpriced" comment, it seems there isn't much hope with you understanding the following, but I will try anyway. The OP...

And the naivety of some people on it continues to astound me! Please can you justify how the bespoke, developed only for 172/182, plug and play solution from K-Tec, is "overpriced", compared to a generic unit that currently does not run the car's existing dash?

As has been mentioned, K-Tec do a plug and play solution which runs the existing MM dash. It comes with everything you need, and will allow you to upgrade the engine all the way to ITBs and beyond (their own Cup Racer is running ITBs with the Gen90 ECU). Should you want to upgrade the dash at a...

Have you got it running the standard dash yet?

Does it run the standard cup racer dash as the K-Tec kit does?

Test can be done on the AP discs with the same pads, so discs will be the only difference!

Fred, If you ever want "next to sod all difference" quantified, I'm more than happy to test a set and publish the results!

I had a new brake setup fitted recently (PF 330mm discs, Ferodo DS3000 pads and KTR braided lines) and repeated an ABS stop test that I did a while ago on my old brakes, now that the new brakes have bedded in. Test was done on the same car, same driver, same fuel load, same road and same ambient...

TDF and Track Group legally look like two different companies. TDF is owned by Matt Faulks (records from Companies House show this), and he is the only Director. Track Group have different directors, none of whom are Matt Faulks. ​ As Mick says, if the invoice for the work is from TDF, then...

Aerocoat are just outside St Olaves and are very good. Their website isn't great, but just give them a call. www.aerocoat.net

Not sure if your comments were aimed back to me, but I completely agree with what you're saying. The kit price of £20 was quoted by The Fatty, and I was agreeing that for a one-off, bread boarded system, not in a box, that he's described (not the same as what you're making) it may be realistic...

I rest my case. The hardware cost is not going to be anything like £8 (your quoted £4 doubled). Component costs alone will be that or more, you then have then PCB costs (not forgetting the associated NREs which need to be amortised). You then have the time Chet has spent developing this...
