Yep -- we are going to try to do it so that it could be just a software update, but at this time we aren't sure if we need to do any hardware changes.

The real issue is braking energy. If the Phx-ICE design is tough enough for braking energies (it wasn't designed to be a car controller!) then we won't need to update hardware. If we run into braking issues, we may have to tweak the design a bit, or add some external hardware.
