Update:

Took the setup down and made it all pretty. Finished up the loose ends, ect , ect.
Being the initail ECU was done with EFILive, I decided to start from scratch and flash another ECU using HP Tuners software. Its been a nice learning curve. Had some bugs, mainly with dealing with the vehicle the ecu originated regarding flex fuel and some auto trans bits running in the background/ deeper tables. Was able to take the car out and drive it down the driveway a few times. Its a decent sized driveway. Happy so far with the progress. Even with it just in the early tuning stages, I like it better than the Projection system it replaced. Next step is to finish wiring the analog outputs of the FP & WB gauges for the Pro Link. This will allow easier and better tuning of the VE, PE and spark tables. Perhaps mid week I'll have it ready for some data logging. Also getting a square to sine wave converter so the ECU can read the VSS. (Viper 3 wire vs GM 2 wire VSS signals)
