These are some of the things I am really looking forward to with my new DBW setupfor my race car. No more having to sit in the car to keep it running until it warms up. Just start the engine and forget about it. I'll set idle speed based on head temperature via the MoTec M150.

Being able to control the throttle using a progressive curve of my choosing is going to be awesome!
