Um, so anyway. I too am thinking it's the tune. I'm positive it's not TM, that has been totally removed by Allen. He too said it sounds like i'm dumping too much fuel. I need edit bad. Well, and I need to learn how to use it. Where can I buy it?

If you took it to a dyno they should be able to wideband it for you and you could then report back to allen and have him make some changes. Do you have access to a scanning tool?? With Edit you will still need a scanning tool. HPTuners has both. That is where my money is going..... if this laptop that I paid for 3 weeks ago ever gets here.

If I try to powerbrake it, it totally bogs out and they don't spin at all. Anyone have a guess?
