Bring back the strain gauge

Ive noticed that a lot of people are going faster and faster on s300 now then before, is there anyway way we can bring back the strain gauge settings in s300 to maybe even further improve times , with the people running the dog boxes?

perhaps it was taken out because the factory ecu can't process it fast enough?

could a strain gauge with 2.5v be setup using the iat input? to cut ignition? on shifts

It was taken out because there is very limited space in the ECU memory. Since more people are interested in using a strain gauge input we've added back in a timed rev limit for the shift cut.

How does that help vs adding back in the strain cut input?

I don't see that in 2.5.3?

this would be great...what voltage does it work on? or need to trigger it? 12v? 5 v? 2.5v?

It has not been released yet. It functions from an off/on input, not voltage.

using this cut...how does the timing come back in?..does it slowly come in or does it just go back to the map instantly?

Flat shift strain gauge shift knob...has a built in on/off ground signal that is adj for how touchy the trigger is

I see that they are based in Europe, Are there any dealers in the U.S?
