So I did the brake snip mod and I have a cel with p2127 and the car is in limp mode, says throttle voltage too low and the car is in limp mode. I double checked and it's the right wire. The a is flashing on the dash as well. Code won't clear, its a hard fault.
 
Must be the wrong wire then. Reconnect it.
 
I did. I checked continuity first by poking the wire as per the diagram, #83. There were 2 green/black wires. I guess it's probably safe to try cutting the other one at this point. Also since I have you Terry, how much of a gain do you think CPI would be over map4? My current best us 12.4@114.5. I would like a little closer to 118 mph. Thanks.

It was the wrong one. I cut the other one and it launches like a mad man now lol. I still want more power

CPI lets you max out power via a stronger E85 mix, so you can run up to around E50 with it. What is the current E85 mix?
 
From interior to exterior to high performance - everything you need for your Stinger awaits you...
By my calculations, about e32. Seems to be good as far as the logs go. Car just went 11.9@117.6 today on map 4. 1.63 sixty thanks to the correct brake snip mod lol
 
You don’t need to cut the ECU wire to achieve brake boost?
To achieve the same result, just do the following;
Just take out the Stop Lamp fuse and replace it with a Fuse tap, inline fuse holder and a switch.

Put in Drive, turn off switch (simulates fuse pull) and now you can brake boost. After you are done switch back on, turn Car on/off to clear dash lights and back to normal.

And obviously this would only be used on a Track.

Enjoy!

P.S. This is reversible as opposed to the BMS snip.
