ok... that's the same Adaptronic Unit... Says they're in stock & shipping... Anyone actually tried one?

I'm Happy when my Decades of Patience finally Matures... The Bell Goes Ding... Your Product is Ready!

I could save up for Dual Wide-bands... & I did put a New O2 Sensor in my RB exhaust when I installed it.

The Adaptronic listing says plug & play with a good stock harness... Self-tuning? What's to stop the Drooling all over myself? Changing out a few things & ditching the AFM is a Labor of Love without having to Pay Extra for Tuning.

Pavlov's Bell of Inventive Salivation?

Is it the Grail! At Last! At Last!

We Thank Thee! Oh Rotary Gods of Our Father's... For The Mighty Salivation of Thy Servants in Waiting... For the Coming of the Words of Wisdom... in Thy Mercy!

"Self tuning" is a interesting term. It still needs to be set up properly and monitored properly, but the Adaptronic is about as close to a self learning unit as you can get. You have to get a good fuel map and target AFR map built, then it will self tune itself to whatever map is there. I'm not sure if it self learns timing (doubt it), but the controller itself is rather impressive.

Check the Adaptronic forum. Tons of pleased users there.

There's some confusion about the various models for the S4. I guess it's kinda in transition ATM. Truth be told... the Modular Unit with the Expansion Ports seems worth the extra $100 to me.

I think that would be a smart move for the owner who understands the value of the Traveling the Upgrade Road with a Good Companion to Start With...

I'm a Crazed Inventor Type - but I'm starting from scratch again... The Modular would at least hold a greater value as an investment vs. possible returns... 20B's have never been easier now with after market center sections available...

I Can Dream a Rotary Dream in this Modern World! It can start small & take another decade...

"Visions of Rotary Pornography" Dance through My Head... Where would I Dream of Ending Up with my Project?

Scrapping & re-doing the Entire Drive-line from weak NA Bones... I would Envision a 26B with Double S5 Intakes & Active 6-ports & VDI's.

2 electronic transmissions - 1 front & 1 rear for all-wheel drive with a Super Adjustable, Rally-Jumping, Baja Bugging to Road-Race Suspension.

I'd fantasize that all aluminum housings, rotors, custom dry-sump pans & pumps, custom bell-housings, front-cover adaptations & compatable E-shafts Exist in My Perfect Rotary World...

& it All fits with dropping the engine & moving it back a bit & tossing the stuff you don't need... & the Tin Man Grins & the Cowardly Lion Roars Again...

Ding Dong the Witch is Dead!

as the Adaptronic Modular Unit Sings Us Back to Our Emerald City of Rotary Bliss...

Ask the Wizard if You Dare... or Maybe that Guy Hiding behind the Curtain... I've got the Witch's Broom... I'll Make a Trade for Ruby Slippers...

There's No Place Like 7 Heaven... There No Place like 7 Heaven!
