Got the programmer back yesterday, and spent a sleepless night waiting to go over to the shop to install the new program. Pulled the required fuses, plugged in the programmer, and boom! new, correct tune! Fired right up, rapped the throttle to blow out all the unburned fuel left from the stock tune, and she settled down to a nice, smooth idle. Went for a test drive to get up to temp, and check for leaks, burp the intercooler pump, everything looks fine so far. Going to drive around for awhile to get a good heat soak, then check the torque on those skimpy looking intake bolts. Then....LOOK OUT! I'll probably take the hit, and fill up with 94 Sunoco (eat your hearts out Cali guys!) and try to annhilate these Nittos!!! Thanks to Brian, and everyone at Magnuson for their quick response, Tony Avida at Under Pressure Motorsports, and my friend Howard for the help!

Outstanding! It's raining right now, I was going to go out for a blast on the interstate after traffic died down, but it'll have to wait. Got a spare belt, just in case, double checked the torque on the intake bolts, checked the intercooler coolant, and engine coolant, and everything's good. Sunday will be the big test, my 235 mile break in back to DC. The TEST will be for me to keep my foot out of the throttle to get decent mileage. Love that blower whine. You know, I've been working on blown dragsters since the 70's starting with blown gas, then blown fuel a little bit, and now on a friend's Top Alcohol Dragster with the huge PSI screw blower. But.....there's nothing like that whine coming from your own vehicle on the street.
