Here is my AFK, turbo timer and EVC. My Navigator is where the ashtray used to be. (I forgot to take a picture of it). I spliced the cable as shown in the drawing below so that I can move it to the lower left portion of the windshield when I am on the track at HPDS.
The RJ-11 Connectors and Cable are standard telephone connectors and cable. It is working great.
*** NOTE *** DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CRIMP THE RJ-11 CONNECTORS ONTO THE CABLE WHEN THE CABLE IS PLUGGED INTO THE F-CON!!!
One of my connectors was not fully crimped, so I went back and re-crimped it, but forgot to unplug it from the F-CON. The RJ-11 crimper has a single metal bar that crimps all of the pins simultaneously, and it caught my F-CON V Pro on fire.
(The internal ribbon cable is insulated with paper 
).
Japtrix and Garret at HKS were really cool. They gave me a new F-CON V Pro at a deep discount (I think at cost). Nonetheless, the damage does not look to bad and I may be able to fix the old one and use it as a backup, or for my next project.
After I fried my F-CON, John was really cool and let me borrow his so that I could make Homestead the next day. That night turned out to be a string of bad luck, however. We re-set his jumpers per the manual to configure his F-CON to work in my VQ-35DE, and uploaded my F-CON files. WOT shifting worked great with my F-CON, but when I tried it with John's, the rev limiter never kicked in and I pegged my tach. Now my car is back at Japtrix with a ticking sound. 
Hopefully it is only the valve train, but we don't know yet. Roger is going to try to get the motor out this week to look at it. I guess I was not meant to make it to Homestead.
For now on, I am going to fully test everything with baby steps before just going out there and hammering it hard.
On a good note, we got 609 hp and over 600 ft-lb of torque (actual measurements) on the dyno with 93 octane (this was before I tried my WOT shifting stunt). The temperature was somewhere in the mid-70's. With weather correction, my hp was 603 hp. The boost was 17 1/2 psi.
Last time my hp was in the 550's at 13 1/2 psi, but it was hot and it weather corrected up to 584 hp. It may seem like I did not get much for the extra 4 psi of boost, but since it was hot last time (and hence there was less air/fuel going into the combustion chambers), we were able to run more advanced timing. With the cooler weather (and thus more air/fuel going into the motor), we had to pull the timing back to keep it from pinging on 93 octane.
