Thanks . I am looking forward to seeing this project all the way through . When it's done I do expect it to be in amany ways like a very different car . I drove the car today and must say it was running flawless . There is a nervous excitement which comes when making multiple upgrades .

It's too bad we live far away. I've always liked the work you have posted and have learned so much reading your posts.
Very nice modes, looking at pedals, how do you like yours, or have you not installed yet? Would like to see. Have you though oof tracking yet?

I wil also PM you Babymd since we are so nearby and I've always enjoy reading your posts you are welcome to see the final result of this tremendous effort .

I read your posts with great interest and enjoy your impressions. But I wonder, what is your end point?
