I just read their directions. They have very good directions. I'll have to step up my game and write better instructions.
Anyway, yes, it will work. They are interrupting the negative side of the coils, we're interrupting the positive side. I'd recommend installing our box after theirs, so that they don't lose power during a WOT shift and cause it to reset.
Thanks for the heads up, phrozen... Initially we assumed it would work but we were unsure what you were doing. The full ignition actually goes through our box (hence the large aluminum enclosure) since we actually control the timing as well. We have a small boot sequence which also includes loading maps from EEPROM, so you definately don't want to reboot us often.
Listen to phrozen, he is right on guys make sure you put our box first, and then put them second so that they have "the last say in things". Otherwise if you put us on the wrong side of the wiring you will be rebooting us every WOT shift
I'm sure one of us (phrozen and/or myself) can write something up to clarify for everyone.
BTW great product/idea guys, can't wait to see what the 2 do at the track together.
Thank you both for working this out. I actually will be buying both products, TCS first, then WOT Box. I was wondering the same exact thing if they would be compatible. I can't wait until I can afford both. This setup along with what I have already should help me alot at the track. Thanks to both companies for great products.
