You can do this. Instead of using a fixed value resistor as stated in the instructions on the tech section purchase a 20 turn 25k ohm potentiometer or variable resistor. Somewhere on the net you can find the different values for the resistor pellets in the keys. Adjust the pot for the different values until the car starts, then drop a little nail polish to lock the pot and you are set.
