Joe took good care of me and my car as did Garth. I've been daily driving it with little issue. Starting to try and tweak it for some mpg at cruise but am going to need to do that more as passenger with the laptop, I'd love to know what the stock DME runs for timing at cruise!
Clutch has quieted some but still makes some noise engaging in first, is the nature of the aggressive friction material I think. A clunk has shown up in the front suspension I need to investigate and I think it's getting time to get rid of this 'glass front bumper
Headlights need polishing, they were clear when the car left but I suspect sitting out at Undercover yellowed them up to the point they need to be stripped.
Tuning, headlight cleaning, and suspension work are next. Oh and RSS semi-solid motor mounts! I need the room in the engine bay and the stock ones are huge. I'll be trying to better isolate the Numeric shift cables too, the NVH from them is pretty bad but I hope to quiet them some.

Make it 3 for the headlights, but priority #1 is driving the thing. The lights can wait until winter

I can send you some tables to give you a good reference. Garth had my car setup great for drive-ability when he based tuned my pro112.

There's a guy local to me who details and can do the headlights in a day or two, right now it's my daily though lol. I'll use him and skip doing it myself this time as he will protect it with film etc. Just sucks they went downhill so quickly!
I'm out of town right now but sure I'd love to see some well tuned driveabilty tables. Garth did mine as well and it runs great but I tend to want to run leaner and more timing than others, OEM would be a good starting point. Just have to watch EGT and ensure that it tips in rich when power is requested is all. Wish the proEFI forums weren't so dead!
