Default Speartech: Drive By Wire

Hello, I was looking for opinion on Speartech Harness for Drive By Wire. There system looks pretty good with electronic pedal. I will be using on an LS3 which requires DBW. Any others I should look at?



Thanks,

The Speartech setup is great. John REALLY knows his stuff and can easily answer any question that you have.

I'm using the Speartech's E38 ECM with TBW for my LS7 and I'd definitely go that way again. It's just so easy.

I agree 100% with everything Scott said. I am running the exact same setup as Scott. It's been working great with no problems.

This might be a good option if you are not in a hurry:

According to GMPP, these controllers will be available in early 2008 with the following part numbers: LS2 19166568, LS3 19201861, LS7 19166567.

Features of the system:

- Harness has an OE style fuse/relay center (fully populated with required items). To keep wiring clean and centrally-located, there are additional vacant fuse and relay positions.
- A 12-wire bulkhead connector is broken out of the harness and includes user outputs such as tach signal, vehicle speed signal (if a vehicle speed sensor is connected at the transmission), malfunction indicator light, fused ignition power, fused battery power, and oil pressure sensor. A mating connector allows these outputs to be tied-in cleanly without cutting into the harness.
- Cooling fan control – system will power a fan when coolant reaches 212 F
- Fuel pump is controlled by the ECM
- Controls late-model LS series alternators

Speartech all the way!!!

I'm running that on Penny and I have the "fly by wire" deal.

You will get much better, and more personal, service from Speartech than from GM. After all at Speartech you get to talk to the owner.
