Lou thats cool, like to have one of them myself. All I know is aI am beat, Been working on that tree I had cut down. Split and hauled two loads yesterday and two again today. Then doe some clean up around it. Still haev another good load or two left to split but rain is coming so no work on it tomorrow. Then my wifes 71 Cgevy blew a rusty brake line yesterday and had to help one of my friends replace that. Actually replaced three while we were at it. Most are new or newer now. 40 year old car tends to get rusty parts. Also got the house cleaned up, went to two banks, store and video store. Me and the boy rented the new Test Drive. gonna check it out in a bit. So thats my day. Anyone else as productive?

It esentially does the same thing as most tuners, but is better than most hand helds. The guy road test several cars and makes fine adjustments all over the place to make for the best "fun to drive" feel, yet staying economical. This canned tune offers WAY more transmission tuning than any hand held out there (there are no hand helds for the 3.5L, but in the case of the 3.8L, there are hand helds and canned tunes). He also tunes it custom to your mods. So I for example have a CAI and Exhaust, so I told him about that, and he will tweak the tune to make sure I am getting the most out of all my mods as a whole.

I will do a nice write up for everyone once I get it installed, and then have the crank position re-learned by a shop.
