How do you get that, from this?

Why is Steph still running a Motec and not AEM? I heard he couldn't make power.
Our prototype Race system was not available to Steph until after the current race car was completed and the start of the 2002 season had already begun. We made a jumper harness to connect our system to Steph's existing Motec chassis harness and made the same exact power as the Motec on the dyno. Steph took the car to Florida with our system on the car. However, our launch control system is different than the Motec and Steph wasn't familiar with it and had a hard time setting it up. Also while in Florida, he developed an intermittent misfire, that traced back to the jumper harness between the AEM unit and the existing Motec harness. The next race was in New Jersey and the car was staying on the east coast. This fact, coupled with Steph's familiarity with the Motec data logger analysis software that we already possessed led to the joint decision by Steph and AEM to remove the jumper harness, put the Motec back in the car and finish the existing season rather than use race events as test sessions. As you all know, trying to get familiar with new software is not an overnight thing and not something a professional race team does mid-season.

As to any belief that AEM was hiding the fact that the Motec is in the car, well, anybody who has seen the car recently can attest to the fact that the Motec is prominently displayed in the cockpit in public and recent print advertisements.


******* idiot, learn to read!!!
