Anyone running a WOTbox?

Opinions? I have the chance to pick up one from a buddy, brand new. I have Cobb, but we'll be switching to MHD, no JB4 BEF, just straight MHD. How difficult is the install? How's the performance of the 2step and NLS?

Install wasn't too bad. I didn't have any DIY when I installed mine years ago, so I did one on the other forum. NLS was badass, flawless. 2step was OK. It was good for keeping the RPMs at a fairly even level making the launch a little easier. I was on street tires though, and not able to take full advantage. I don't remember how much boost it would build at the line. I'd be interested to know.

The NLS is great once it's adjusted right. One big advantage to the wotbox is you don't have to run it in the default mode slaved to the clutch pedal sensor as tightly as the jb4, made it much smoother in execution. If I hit gears too fast with the jb4 NLS I would sometimes catch it still in ignition cut. Disadvantage was being more expensive, jb4 adding NLS was cheap.

How easy is it to hook up pi to it or would pi run solo?

Well it does have nitrous integration, so triggering PI off of it may be possible. I haven't been on the software in a while though.

It’s been a decade since I messed with one but shoot me a PM of what you’ve done with pics and I’ll see if I can remember what I did.
