I won't be able to take advantage of Jan's visit this time. I'm pondering coming up for a visit perhaps Friday afternoon, just to watch the events, but I won't be participating...

Yup, tune only. Very much looking forward to this. I've done the pulley/intake/exhaust/colder plugs (but no header) and have injectors coming this week. I'll have them in before the tune.

It'll be a bit of a drive. Long day I guess... At least I can stop for some Mighty Taco in Buffalo...

Yup, been there... and I'll have to take sponge candy back for the wife. That's apparently a Buffalo-only delicacy that'll ensure the locks aren't changed when I get back home.

We've good friends that lived in both Rochester and Buffalo for a while who introduced us to Mighty and sponge candy. Now we have to stop every time we pass though...

Might as well add a Beef-on-'weck sandwich while you're there, too. (Weck meaning Kimmelweck roll (I'm sure I misspelled it)).

And don't forget the butter lambs from 'da Broadway Market, dere....

great news...... we will have all of the maps ready for tuning when we get there..... injector scaling, map sensor scaling if you run big boost etc
I've bought new software and these maps are being made now!

it will be possible to run aftermarket 3 bar map sensors
no need to use band aid voltage clamps

Make sure you don't spill any in your car. Mighty aroma can last a long time.

I'm in for a reflash, I still have the CEL on from last time. No new parts though, so I doubt a tune would do much more than it already has.

Mangotangoe what have you done now to your car? LOL That thing was a beast if I remember correctly. (If this is the one that had a stuck injector that flooded a cylinder)

That's the one. That cylinder has the best leak down of all 4.
There's still more in it. Could have used another pull or two last year.

By my calculations though... the ride home should be shorter ride, correct?
