Ok so here is the full story, no it is not tuned fully it just has a base tune on it so I can get it to Phils house. We had an eventful day yesterday, first the guy that is shipping out my intake and TB sends it to my house like I told him not to so Campbell had to go grab it and bring it up to the shop so we could put it on. After cleaning it all up and reassembeling the intake and putting it on we were immediatly faced with another problem, the cam on the TB was the 00-02 style which requires a longer throttle cable to work. Not knowing this we quickly tried to think of someone who had the TB I needed and made about 10 phone calls to our buddy Vince since his car was down with a broken trans. After all the calls and no answer we decided to take matters into our own hands and drove to Vince's house, open his car and garage and used his tools to steal his TB and headed back to the shop after leaving him a note to not try and start his car

Once back if was obvious the problem was the size of the cam on the TB and so we threw Vince's TB on until I could fix the one I got. The car fired right up, so I did a good job on swapping the cam sensor wires, and it sounded very quite for the first time in a long time. We let it warm up and learn the idle again and then took it for a test drive where I so badly wanted to plant it to the floor but managed not to. It was generally a good day and the car ran great, thanks Mike for giving me a hand.

hahahaha awesome work jeff. PS you should stop by this weekend, your old signature is starting to wear away

Im waiting on Phil to e-mail me back and it'll be there for the tune. I went and transferred the title over to my name from my parents today and also ordered a new plate, but you'll have to wait to see what it is.

[JoeliusZ28]

hope its a good one, i liked your old plate

[DETROITMUSCLE]

I talked to Phil and he said he can probably swing by and grab it on Thursday, that gives me time to hook up the gauges and wire the cutout switch tomorrow. He also asked if we have 10 people for the dyno day and said hes ready for that as well

[sman]

Phils gounna be there for the dyno day? Sweet. I want to see how close his guess is to what the car really puts down.

So glad to hear that things are finially working out for you
