Anybody in SoCal interested in being guinea pig?

Click the link in my signature if you want details on what I do.

I'm thinking that the Rogue should be able to get the same throttle response, fuel economy, and what I call "CVT Control" (the Altimas seem to be able to hold their higher RPMs better with my grounding kit installed).

If anybody is interested, feel free to reply or email me and we can set something up.

I would need to be able to measure out and test fit the kit. That requires someone locally, unfortunately...

Thanks for the offer, but I won't know what to measure until I actually see a Rogue in person. I don't do those typical grounding kits that ground the engine to the shock tower (completely pointless).

I'll keep you in the R&D loop once I get a test vehicle.

Hey joshjv... sounds like you're out of luck on the guinea pig angle. If you feel adventurous... you might get some ideas for a DIY project via this thread:

He's not completely out of luck for the guinea pig option, just not for the initial measurements and test fitting.

I'll need 2-3 people to give me unbiased results once a prototype is designed.
