Retail FTL.

Finished school, tough to get a job in that field unless I leave the state so it back to school for me ...at least my wife finished school and has a decent job.

Today on the way back to duluth, I saw a black SS w/ high rise wing at 12pm just south of Mora heading south on 35. All back w/ I think tint.

Ryan thanks again for throwing the springs and spacers in.

well... the tune that was givin to me was not setup for an "lsj' (scales, ect)... it was setup for a trailblazer TB and some other stuff. kinda fubar'd. took one thread and 5 min on the hp tuners forum to fix this.

then on top of that, we figured out why i wasn't running boost... and why 2.2's and 2.4's don't hookup the boost bypass. stupid computers... so now once we disconnected the boost bypass from the intake and the gauge, i has boost!

Dont worry about it. Its tough to learn how to launch in these cars. I usually launch at 2000 or 2500 rpms and ease into it a bit.
