    • My plan is to try Tuner Pro this time around. Years ago in 2008 when i built my engine i used tunercat. That laptop is long gone but I still have the files somewhere on my hard drive. but i havent touched the tune since then. Will document what i do, i re-imaged the netbook last night with a fresh copy of windows 7.

      • So as many of you may have heard, i have another project on my hands now. Long story short on my way home from the M&G my fuel line let go of the rail at the quick connect resulting in a massive fire. The car is fixable and no one was hurt. I was very lucky, the car could have easily burned down or at least suffered substantial damage but i was in the right place at the right time. Cleanup and root causing of the issue has begun.

                  • Wow, really sorry to hear, Joel - any "above the hood" cosmetic damage, or was it all contained to the engine bay?

                          • Going to see how the engine bay cleans up tonight. My prediction is if i fix the fuel lines the car will start right up and drive the way it sits... Everything will just be a little "crispy." So depending how it turns out, i might run it for the summer and tear the whole thing down this winter for an engine bay respray, engine rebuild, and 24x conversion.... And all the other dress-up stuff the car never had in the first place. That will cut significantly into my S60 budget however. I also still want to perfect my OBD1 tune before i convert so i can copy those values over into the new hptuners tune.

                            More soon...
