Hey Steel,

It seems you'll have more options to chose from w/ the latest & greatest choices Randy has added to the software.
I've been driving w/ it for 5 days now and the car is a "rocket".
There is no " mental hesitation/reservation" anymore as to whether or not my MCS will have enough power to "make that move" while driving in the mess we call NY.
The power is now "always" there...whenever you need it....

Peace,
D

Hmmm.... looks like I just found my next mod, I was going to wait for the GIAC from Helix, but if Dennis is happy with this it needs no other endorsement.

The "Helix-Chip" will be ready in the beginning of September.
Eric is taking a vacation and will be setting apointments upon his return.

All "chip-forces" in place are on hold till Sept. ::sniff::sniff::

The "Helix" GIAC chip is just a few short weeks away. I don't know about you, but August is a pretty busy month so it usually flies by. September will be here in no time!

He's the one to ask
