Cruise control works great!! Man this thing jumps from 65-75 in a hurry!! What an amazing difference!! Egts dropped about 100*. Havent smashed the skinny pedal to the flor yet but I can tell she has quite a bit more juice under the hood. I only ran my 80 go economy mode this morning.

@ 70 mph and 2400 rpms on the highway my egts are between 620 to 650. Normally in the mid to high 700's. This baby will go from 65 to 80 pretty dang quick!! Never had that type of acceleration before in the mph range. Starting it one the way home from work wasn't too hard of a start as compared to this mornings start.

Not sure exactly but I know they drop really fast. Lol. I will check tomorrow. I got an even longer drive tomorrow. 260 round trip.

I play around too much to get an accurate mpg reading. Especially when I just got it back on the road with all this new cool stuff. Lol

In 4th goin 50mph I was sitting at about 550*. Then WOT until i hit 70 (which happened about twice as fast as before!!). I was at 3100rpms and 920* still in 4th gear. How's that sound to you?
I love being able to pass people and not have to get a run at it!!. I am really amazed at the added power and all around get up and go.
Oh by the way no more p1211 codes. Thanks to the terminator!! Muahahaha.
