Yes this is F4Fast's car starting on some initial system tuning last night. No major issues so far but still obviously a very involved process and lot's left on the table to be done with the standalone. This was more or less posted on fb to let people know it's still steadily in the works and give a teaser of the first real world results

Not a whole lot more info to share at this time

I pulling for this effort because this is stateside and would ultimately be more practical ( crossing my fingers)to U.S. owners. More power to D3!

I'll take either Novel or D3, whichever comes first. I'm not gonna hold my breath though since it's been 5 years since the ISF came out and there still isn't engine management yet.

i'll take one that's more reliable in the long run. im sure ISF can be tuned for more hp/tq but for long term reliability on engine is important

The end goal for the full system is to use all of the features capable of the hardware and have fuel pressure, oil pressure, temperature, and many other fail safes, closed loop tuning, etc, etc. Also realizing that setup will add cost we plan on working out more cost effective setups for the individuals with simpler setups that don't need all the features.
