I heard yesterday prod. boxes started shipping. Any truth to that? If so, any idea which vendor might have a FP sender?

There are no FP sending units here yet. All the boxes that have shipped do not have them but, the owners are entitled to them and there is a card stating how to get it sent directly to you.
All the production boxes have shipped. This includes the beta testers that ahd sent theirs in to be replaced.
We are working on figuring out the warm up flashing thing. It is so remote and there are a couple of guys that get it but, it just seems random or something?? We are working on it.

My Adrenaline has been acting weird lately. It will be on PL10 and have strong power and then it will not fuel at other times. Switch back all the way to PL0 and back to PL10 and then the power comes back. Went to pass on the highway and there was no PL10, scared the **** out of me and had to pull back out of traffic. It seems like it will stop fueling whenever it wants to??

Quad, I put in a cheap mechanical boost gauge on the intake horn to check the adrenaline's boost accuracy via map accuracy vs 21 dollar boost gauge. So far the two are dead on.
During this test I was going up 40 MPH hill and had the Adrenaline on level 4, and I was in fourth gear. 45 PSI! That is darn near P-Pump fueling on a stock turbo, unbelievable. I had to remove my boost elbow and let the gate open at the stock 21psi, otherwise, my stocker is going to explode!
Does anyone know what the HP record is for a stock turbo on a VP-44 powered truck? No drugs, or water, just #2 and a stock holset.

So I don't even have mine yet (will Friday!), but I already thought of some features that may or may not have been mentioned before.
1) Is half-fueling possible like the smarty?
2) How about an accurate, or more accurate display of instant fuel mileage (like the overhead, but accurate since the fuel delivery is controlled by the chip?).
3) Corrected speed readings?
The last two are obviously a commander only thing, which by the way cough cough I'd love to beta test cough cough.

Well its been awhile since I posted here... With $120 to fill up the ol truck the Jetta has been getting lots of miles lately!!
Put in the new dubbed Beta2 box in my truck today (way too many wires in that little hole now... That big plug is a PITA!)
Got out and warmed up the old beast... Did some driving. Surging is Much Much Much improved.. I can still make it surge at times (normally lightly accelerating around 1600-1900RPM), but am usually able to correct it. I can also just barely notice a slight surge at very light throttle , nothing crazy though... Power still feels very nice, was able to break the rears loose on dry concrete in 4th on a mild roll into pull on PL05... Not too bad!
Will be on the dyno next Fri and pulling the sled in Alvarado next Sat... Trying to decide whether I want to use production tune, aggressive tune, or the *new* comp tune... Will post back results.
Keep up the great work quad!!
Oh and PS the fuel pressure sender is now deciding to work better on this 'new and improved' beta box... Will let you know if it changes
