So, what do you think the odds are of making the MS-IIe control a VVT system?

An idea a friend on MT.net gave me was to try the boost control soleniod, there's a RPM/TPS map, which I could use. If I could swap TPS for oil pressure, I'd be done.


Of course, I'd like to have a table of target phase values for the cam, and PID it against RPM.

http://www.google.com/googlebooks/chrome/index.html#

Ok, so, instead of an open letter to the community describing their launch and their product, they have a cartoon. Fair enough. Google is Google, I suppose.

What I find funny is that their page bragging about a faster, better internet is BUTT-SLOW. Click "next page" and it pulls you to the top, sits on its thumbs, and then updated the picture.

Hope the browser is better.

Less finiky?

Anyway, running my open-source OS here at work, I can't run this open-source software yet. ha.

Anyway, I don't care. My life now revolves around SPORE. How is it out in backwater places without electricity like Australia and Europe and here I have to wait until Sunday?

DC just hasn't been fully accepted yet. Give it a little more time to show what it can do.
