Can you crank the car without the spark plugs (disable the coils) and see a steady RPM on the 'Squirt?

Did you use shielded wire for the VR wiring, ground one end of the shield, and run the wiring away from the coils?

Yeah it dosn't work unless you have the rx8 front cover with the original cas sensor mounting. Unfortunately after my countless messages to DIY, and getting either-no reply, or yes we'll do it, or no we won't do it. Very upset about this and they keep saying to change the wheel which is something I'm not willing to do.
