I seen a yellow lsj with a low rise and a triple A pillar pod at the Tim hortons on 52nd in rundlehorn. It had CSS.net decals in the back windows. Didn't get a look at the guy or girl driving it.

The roads are getting a little slick now. Had to idle through an intersection which looked to have some water on the road. Might have been a little ice.

I'm gonna have to leave around 6. My parents came down and we are doing a late supper

fair enough - but iirc superchips doesn't offer this either.

I would feel like a heel if I din't say something, you spend $300, then found out afterwards you would have seen better return(performance) from a Trifecta tune...

my bad - that wasa typo;
2pm is what I've understood...

I actually just came in from doing some things (including tinkering on hte white car... wanted to see if anything was posted about this "meet" ~ I'll be there, but probably closer to 2:30

oh i know superchips doesn't offer this as well, but from the good reviews i have heard it offers some decent perfomance gains for basic bolt-on's. basically if i do go that route it would be just to tide me over till i have the time to do a full HPTune to it.

not saying a custom tune doesnt have advantage, at the time i bought my SC tuner there wasnt allot avail for TC yet.

I bought mine used lol
im cheap what can i say (tune is refreshed via net anyway, sma eproduct fo less)
eventually i do plan on some bolt ons and such, money is always key, At which point i would need and want a Trifecta tune as the canned tune from SC is not designed for that, its for a stock set up. To get the most of my per say bolt ons i would def need a custom tune set up.
I did my research at the time (keep in mind there wasnt alot out there for TC when i first bought mine)
either way i still enjoy this tune 100% over gm stock.
superchips has data logging features, o-60 0-70etc..... 1/4 mile times, 1/8 ,ile time etc, have monitoring options to view fuel air tech stuff etc cant change much beside the tune, redline, and top speed.
Thats about it for that, also no new tunes are expected in the near future so it is what it is.

Hope that info helps, cant say much about the 2.4, there mayb info on this site about different tunes, but idk.

ok, forget for a second that I'm a dealer, and let me get this right;

you would rather spend $300 on a device that gives you a canned tune - rather than something written specifically for your car...
You would rather not get a tune made specifically for your car because in the future when you make changes, you don't want ot have to wait for a possible free update on your tune??

Steve - that doesn't make sense...

Also, I just googled it, to see what the SC tuner would do for the 2.4L - and I flat out couldn't find anything mentioning it... I even went to their site.

Hope that info helps, ...
wait just a minute...

I was in no way trying to tease you for your car, or your SC tuner - I was only trying (just like above) to make sense of Steve's logic...

I know why you bought that - and that it was available long before the GMS1 was offered for the CSS - were I in your situation, I would have probably done the same;
I mean you had your car for what, nearly two years before i bought mine?

I don't know that you would need a Trifecta tune - I mean you're happy with your SC tuner, and if it legitimately makes 300+hp, then the limits the stock tune has which virtually negate benefits of aftermarket bolt on's should be removed (which is one of the real plus's with even the GMS1)...

What are you doing here?

I thought you were done with this site/not interested in being here?
(which is completely understandable btw ~ I mean not everyone is into the same stuff.)

You didn't cut your hair for nearly a year Jonathan? I don't think I could do that I'd have a huge thick afro.

I have fine hair... downside is if it gets any kind of length, after roughly 24 hours, it looks greasy, and just plain yuck...

I cut it last for Christmas (December 2010), then again for easter (april 2011)... that's it...
this past week it seemed to get to the length where I could tuck it (out of the way) behind my ears...
lately one of my brothers feels it's his duty to get on my nerves about my hair...
what ever...

I know I look better with shorter hair... but meh...
Who am I trying to impress? (really)

I go to my job, rarely deal face to face with customers, then come home to an empty house...
