    Trying to find out if he makes a fusebox upgrade and gold connector kit for my car, '95 F512M. I see Testarossa and 512 TR listed on his site, but not F512M. I think it is nearly the same as the 512 TR, but need to know for sure.

    I tried to send an email via his website last week, but have not heard back.

    Any help would be great!

    I would try calling the shop, 303 938 9000. You may not get to talk to Dave directly but you will get an answer to your question. That is a busy shop.

    Ha! That's terrific. I've felt the same way, but always gotten through.

    FYI to OP: I got the 512TR gold connector kit, went in like a charm (do a search and you may find my effort on a general connector kit thread.)

    He, as I understand, doesn't post here anymore due to some unnecessary bickering that sent him to spend his time more fruitfully. A loss in my estimation.

    Anyway, tell him hello for me.

    Thanks guys. I will give him a day or two more. Sure he is busy, the email I used was [email protected], that what you use?

    This one got kicked back, the other seems to have gone through...

    Thanks, found your thread. Looks like a great upgrade.

    Still waiting to find out if the 512TR kits works in the F512M as well...I assume it does, but I would like Dave to confirm.

    Dave is a great guy, a true innovator and his posts were always well-crafted and incredibly interesting.

    He built / installed a new fuse box for my '95 456GT, as the old one was fried: I think my car served as a "mule."

    World class shop, no question.

    I remember that thread. Client was totally off base and brought nothing to this site.

    IMHO

    Like I said, use the phone number. I was at the shop yesterday. I was in the area working on a project so I dropped in. Busy place but Dave took time out to talk with me for about 30 minutes. Lots of stuff going on in that place. Always fun to see what new innovations are on the horizon.

    You could also try sending a note to Jason Harwell (Scuderia Rampante's Technical Faciltator) at [email protected].
