If you can vault the ceilings and get a full height lift, I would go that route.

The anchors are slightly counter sunk. Nothing in the way, which makes it really nice.

Not bad, considering I paid $800 for two, 24x24x6 pads, installed with rebar.

Do you have a photo? This is exactly what I was considering.

With concrete, getting all of the trucks, workers, and materials on site is half the battle.

I'll look. I should, somewhere. I actually haven't taken the lift down since putting it up. ...but I know I took pictures after gluing the anchors in.

def something i may consider. the quickjack is nice and has been very useful for maintenance, but it still doesn't leave me with a ton of space if I want to do anything more significant

This weekend is finals for the series I race in. I was bummed that I didnt get in since tickets sold out in 10 seconds (no joke). But I got a call today and they squeaked me in! Now I have 2 short nights to prep the Evo and hope for the best. Super excited though.

Ditto! M150 + level 2 logging. Went for the Universal crank trigger since that'll last through any engine design but still lets you use the oem. I'll likely keep OEM trigger for 2021 since this thing won't get here till late Jan as you said. But they have no clue on the ACD part in reality - so I'm gonna rely heavily on you to start buddy

If it wasn't for the price tag I'd be a tad more excited lol. Between this and a sequential...... I'll take this 100x.

Sounds like our setups are going to be pretty much the same there then.

I'll probably be working a lot to get something working well for ACD stuff. Might even go back and forth between stock ACD ECU and the Motec to get an idea of what its doing and when a bit more (Now with more logging prowess)

No PDM for me, just going to do it drop in style with OEM to get going for now. I do have RaceCapture also to collect other datas like Tire Carcass temps (coming soon...). So things not ECU related I will run to that and the rest will go to M150. Then I will probably work on figuring out how to get data from M150 to RaceCapture for adding to my mid course logs to really understand whats happening during a run.

Very interested to see what particular projects you get on to and what you do with that Motec!

What do you guys think of these to hold on a splitter? https://www.quik-latch.com/black-ano...uik-latch.html

Basically low profile hood latch pins. Claimed to hold 150lbs each and it won't disturb the airflow too much. I like that the height is adjustable too. I was thinking putting in some rivnuts into the rad support/crossmember and thread the rods into it.
