He likes many hundreds of horsepowers. I just need to add the staged injection code (easy) to support that engine well enough to keep him smiling. All in good time, hardware first, and finishing my ute, and getting/keeping a couple of other cars legal, and adding yet another car to my list of FreeEMSed cars, and so forth.

A handful more of the SMD parts went on this evening just before bed. Progress is progress, even if it's only a little.

ROFL! Is that a snug fit? Or just close?

And how do you plan to heatsink those regulators? :-D

Got any more pics of this case from another angle, I'm curious!
