How much were the kmacs?

Btw running BMW Meth kit with twin CM5 nozzles and boost juice. Had to raise spray to start at 8psi to avoid bogging. Seen logs of 17psi in lower gears...haven't had the chance to test higher gears yet besides dyno.

What did you set your meth parameters at and the fail safe boost?

I'm at 45 for meth add and scaling at 60. Failsafe at 18.5psi.
Turner has them, I think they were 500 or so.

I run 50 adder, 60 scaling, 6 psi. 20 psi fail. But I only use on track (lots of WOT) , so stop and go may cause the bogging. I use boost juice.

You can try messing around with the adder, raising may help if the meth is running too rich. Best bet is to post the logs on n54tech. You could always drop down a nozzel (cm3) for one if needed.

Also the system has to learn, it is very hard to get the 4th gear pulls on public roads, I would be doing in excess of 130-140. So track has worked out for that, or you could tune on a dyno.

rwalker had issues with the set of Dinan plates he was testing -- the spherical bearings were shot after 1,500 miles of mixed use (street/autox/track). Dinan is supplying him with new bearings, but it remains to be seen whether this was just a one-time defect or a design flaw.

I can see one going bad, but both would be an indication of a flaw, either in the design or the bearing choice.

Can we get an update on the Vorshlag plates? It's been quite a while . . .

Our CNC machining capacity has been maxed out trying to keep our current catalog in stock. We've just added a new machinist assistant to keep the machines running at least twice as long, so hopefully we can start on a production run of these soon.

Also, we should know better than try to introduce new parts during the beginning of race season. #pullingmyhairout

OK, I'll be the guy everyone hates. Either way, I will be buying a camber plate of some manufacture this week. There is this matter of a Pro Solo coming up, you see...

So I'd like to buy Vorshlag, but may have to do something else. This is not meant to be a threat, but rather an inquiry as to the status of camber plate manufacture...


At this point, please let us know an ETA, so we can make a decision for this season.

Let me know what you get...leaning toward kmac in lieu of Vorshlag. Heard and saw bad things about GC. Any research or live info on Dinan?

I think we are a few weeks out, but maybe Vorshlag will chime in.

given product development and production cycles in this industry, I'd guess July earliest

I'm hoping they're worth the wait

18 months ago, my shop said Vorshlag plates would be available in 6 months, TOPS

GC plates took 12 months to sort out to something workable (from initial shipments to what they have now)

We are finishing a run of three other parts on the mill which should end late next week, then F22 parts go into production. After we start I'd say it will be about two weeks of machining and one week of plating (nickle and anodizing) and there is a laser cut part that will require welding and plating and then they should be available.

Awesome! I'll at least have them before the end of the season. You can count on me for at least one sale if all goes well!
