Good Call. I understand that you ultimatly would want to wait untill all you mods are done, but I look at it like the first tune is for the car in general just to get the computer where it needs to be. I mean what is left to go on your car-a downpipe, intercooler and fuel pump- maybe a bigger turbo?. The only thing that would really change the tune would be the fuel pump. I may be wrong, but I don't see a down pipe drasticly effecting your tune after you have had it done. Let us know how it goes.

We did the fuel pump the other night. You don't need to tune for it just give the car about 20 min run time for the sensors to pick up on the extra fuel. Other then that the car will run just fine and it adds a bit of power too. (word of advice I got blasted in the eye with gas when I did the install ware some glasses and be very carfull.)

You obviously didnt get it through the same place I did...lol

Im not saying you have to tune for the pump, but Im not doing a tune until i get the pump installed.. thats just a waste of money.. of course I paid for the pump on April 21st... was expecting it LONG AGO, maybe by September, I can get a tune!!

If I was you I would tell mrlilguy you want your money back and go get the CP-E. Yah it's an extra 100 bucks but they got it to us in 3 days and it has a lifetime warranty.

All I can say is you get what you pay for. And CP-E's comes bench tested and pre broken in so no worries about shit going into your moter due to mrllguy being so far behind on pumps and posably rushing the assembly on them just my :2cents3fo:

No answer, left a message. If Revolutions is ready to try, being a site sponsor, I'm wondering if they would do a multi-car discount. Maybe we could do a Tune Meet down there?
