    Me too ,so far less complicated than the airshifter ... very easy to use as long as you order it with for drag not street and don't get the big safety delay stopping you from double shifting
    And remember to hold the button for 5 secs everytime you start to initiate shifting

    Little bit more suspension work and a smaller but good condition turbo (2560 plainbearing) now down to 9.06 with a 1.50 60 ft
    boost controller solenoid decided to show its age and not work so 7.5 psi was the most i saw for all but the last run
    8's are very close, so i ran in the grudge runs after failing miserably in the comp (forgot to arm the shifter.... 1st and last time for that) changed out the solenoid and guessed some settings , ran 9.08 , 1.58 60" and slower to mid track than my previous 9.06 but made ground up top surging wildly on overboost cut , guessed settings gave me 15.7 psi on a 10 psi fuel map and 12 psi boost cut, i'm sure the ERC fuels A8C just saved me a lot of trouble , got to learn to back off when it doesn't feel right [:I]

    Maybe see you in Jan Morry, Livewire is racing prostock again so planning on going over to show some support and also catch up with my daughter who moved over in Oct

    time delays are microswitches just set the desired level, think mine is on 70ms, longer than needed but not one missed or crunchy shift , brought mine on ebay s/h, when it arrived ..no workie..[}] but found the gearchange buttons had corroded contacts, just brought another new bar set from Procycle .

    Best price new will be US ebay but there will be no support , or for local buying with local support Ben or other members should be able to help

    Which electric shifter did you use?

    Have a mate sticking a GSX-R1K engine in an offroad buggy. Reckon the electric shifter is the way to go.

    Morry be good to catch up, will call for sure ,
    sounds like my 1k is at a similar stage to Bretts CBR over there in WA, said he ran a 9.09 at 154mph at the same length as me

    Mick its a Pingle, be good on a buggey once in first and rolling but not without manualy selecting first , Pete has one on his 750/busa turbo streetbike, looked good at Casino and after talking to him about it decided to get 1

    Megawatt longer , lower the front more , custom valved shock , need it to drive forward not up, aiming for a 1.38 or so 60ft

    Morry: He's a slack prick. Turned his phones off for the holidays, too.

    Booster: That's what I ordered through Maurice. So you need to manually select first... Hmmm, will have to put some thought into tht little detail.

    2 issues Ign kill stalls the bike if you select a gear at idle and if you have clutch in long enough to slow or stop gear rotation the hard shift may bend the forks
