No offense to Larz, but you'll get a much better and clearer response out of Matt.

I pulled close to 10K with the unlimited tow tune and averaged close to 15 mpg with it. However, you CAN tow in the Econo tune, I forget what the limit is though.

I tried to talk to Matt but couldn't get by Larz. For three hundred miles I towed in tow/economy tune (that's what they call that tune) and hot tune. On the flats tow/economy was fine but the hills I switched to hot. I then called them back and Larz asked me if I had tried the street tune. I haven't tried that one yet but he also said he would reburn it if I wanted them to.

Hey Inmate 21. You should come install my fuel system while I sit back in a lawn chair and drink ice tea. Want to??? LOL. I may start on the fuel system this weekend or next weekend. Haven't decided yet.

Right on. The Hydra should show up from Tony next week sometime I hope. If it does, we'll do injectors while we are doing the fuel system too. The stock turbo and stock clutch are going to give us the middle finger directly afterwards. LOL

I'll hit you with a text later part of next week just in case I'm not on schedule. Hell I may try to get the gauges put in it this weekend so we have less to do.

Thanks Travis, hope you can make it to RRE. I am working on MODs slowly but surely I don't know how far I will go we will see.

Got the fuel system almost finished. Waiting on one line to come in the mail. They accidentally shorted me one line, but Dennis is taking care of it. While I wait for that line, I went ahead and had my new grille painted to match on the inside.

Looks good!

Shame I helped take it apart, but couldn't be there to hear it live again. That's always my favorite part
