I finally got enough miles on my new forged shortblock to have the training wheels taken off the tune. http://www.mdhmi.com/pics/smilies/whoohoo.gif
Got the meth topped off and away I went out to do some low boost pulls (streets have been wet for the last couple of days). OMG this thing pulls like a mofo.. I started easing into the throttle at 60-65 and just sent the tires up in smoke. :eek: I'm afraid to even try the high boost setting. hehehe
Anyone contemplating going FI needs to go for a spin in a TT car with an auto. Unbelievable!

What was the problem with the trans? All good to go now? Did they take care of you?

Yes. Phil went way above and beyond the call of duty as did the trans builder. Turns out I sheered the fins right off the pump because the trans fluid was too cold for a half throttle romp. I'm being much more careful now to make sure all the fluids are nice and warm before I play.
