will do...

***UPDATE***

well... whew...



THIS TUNE IS AWESOME..!

Let's just say it finally shifted into fourth at 105 mph..!

The TCM tune is nice but not as firm as I thought it was going to be... but overall it's a very nice mod and a must get for all 2.2's... it really puuuuuuuulls now..!

no it definately did not cut out at 105... that's when it shifted into fourth gear... had WAY more... Vince tuned out the governor on my car But stock it would hit around 125 and then shut down...

well it's no ss/sc but I think it could definately take a stock 2.4... a slightly modded 2.4 would be interesting...

i ran a 16.2 w/ my 18's on but I think I MIGHT be able to break into the 15's w/ this tune...

I like the zzp combo... it's definatly noticeable at higher RPM's...

the shifts aren't as firm as I thought they were going to be... I'm used to driving around with my B&m Shift+ on Stage one so it had a nice feel to it... don't get me wrong... w/ my shift+ off it shifts firm and smooth but just not as firm as I imagined...

Alright so we are talking some pretty decent 1/4 mile times with Intake, Exhaust, Header, Short shifter, and tune?

Anyone with these mods got track numbers?
