        • Steve came over and I was able to fix his computer. Our PCM wiring still isn't 100% correct because he couldn't get a signal from my PCM so we actually yanked my dad's PCM out and put my PCM in and then he tuned it.

          And OH MAN does the flash really help!!! When we started it for the first time after Steve flashed the PCM, it didn't even crank. Turned the key and it immediately started right up. It was amazing. Idles a lot better with the calibration. Really need to get the Y-pipe n though because it's really throwing the O2's off.

              • Are none - although my dad might have taken a vid before his battery died. Sounds identical to the other start ups.

                Oh, we did find a nice puddle of trans fluid under the car this time - I need to crawl under and look but I'm almost positive it's going to be that it's leaking from the dipstick tube. We let it run for about 10 minutes and there's less than 8 ounces under there so it's not too bad though.

                  You think the dipstick tube came unseated or cracked?

                  I still never figured where my Camaro's leak came from...

                  • I remember when I was under the car connecting the trans cooler lines that I saw the dipstick tube wasn't seated 100% into the trans pan. I didn't realize how important the seating was so I didn't do anything about it.

                            JK Brian. Looks/ sounds great and if thats all the problems you have I think you will do alright.

                            So how much of a horsepower increase did your car get?
