hi all, i'm thinking about a way to adapt rear parking sensors to work for front of the car. the concept is to put a vss activated relay that will close between 0 and 20km/h and open above 20km/h in addition to that, i will add a latching relay and a deactivation bouton so it looks like OEM...

after installing my arl engine, cleaning the entire VNT turbo and everything runs ok, after doing some tests i realise that the car enters in limp mode if pushed hard on 4th and sometimes doesn't build boost quickly. so i've made a log in 4th full throttle from 1500rpm but it enters limp mode...

hi all, a friend has a porsche cayenne hybrid that has a lot of electrical problems after a water leak. the cost to repair the entire electric system especially the electric engine and related parts are too expensive. so we're seeking for a solution to make the car use the gasoline engine only...
