Hi all,

Well I had a few minutes this evening before th rain came. I did some relocating of my MSD and adapters. The MSD is on the hump in the front just forward of the console right side with very little wire exposure. Minor carpet modification. Looks much btter then the guy I paid to install. The adapters are in the glove box. Mounted the MSD to a piece of plywood under the carpet. It's nice and solid. From what I understand vibration for our MSD DIS 4 is a bad thing and can cause failure.

The car sounds awesome. I've rev'ed it up to 4 grand or so but I have not taken it out yet. IF TOMORROW MORNING IS CLEAR I might drive here to work.

UPDATE - It's raining and it does not go out in the rain.

More later..

8) 8) OK, beautiful day today. 75 degrees, clear, blue and 22. Took a run to the office. That's up I95 about 21 miles. I didn't get on it hard because I want the ECU to get setup with all the changes.

First impression as follows:

1. Low end torque has a noticeable increase.
2. Mid range torque is super.
3. High end torque begs for me to hit it.
4. Shifting is very positive with a constant pull and no delay.
5. Throttle response is fantastic at all speeds.
6. Throttle response between 50 to 95 (didn't want to push it any further yet) is unbelieveable.
7. That new Underdog Pulley begs for more throttle. I can not wait to hammer it.

I'm very impressed all around. I think I'll make a few adjustments to the MSD DIS 4 switches but not until things settle down.

More later but "money well spent" yet again.
