    Oh yea, installing it right now. 90% done!!!!

    EDIT: Sorry, huge ass pictures

    So I just got back from a test drive. It definately feels a lot smoother now. Especially on the low end, no more jerkiness, and the turbo feels a lot smoother now. Before, i would feel a lot of torque, then it would die a little then come back, etc etc.

    But, it does feel like i have to press a little farther on the gas pedal to get it going, dunno if this is normal.

    Nice! I know it has always taken me a week or so of driving to really begin to tell small differences in tuning etc... Let us know along the way if you notice anything else...

    Have you installed it yet? I just bought a used one off NASIOC and wonder how hard/involved the marrying process is?

    Yeah, I read the instructions. I just have the nightmares of my old laptop conking out in the middle of the process and somehow frying my ECU...

    Sweet, don't know why I didn't realize that sooner. I didn't realize that the AP didn't need to be connected to the laptop to do its thing...
