Thanks Ron, would appreciate that. Looking at your trucks upgrades, that is what I am working toward, the gtp38r and the stageII's. With all these great MODS I will love my truck more than my dog!! Hope she doesnt get jealous!!

I had the 140 IDM mod with my stock injectors and loved it. I ran it for a while with my Stage 2 singles and decided to go back to the 120v. I had even more of a touchy throttle and to me it just didn't sound quite right. Seemed to smoke too much for my taste also. It is more "driver friendly" now. The SS injectors and their tuning will give you a touchier throttle response by themselves. The 140v just exaggerated it. My 140v IDM found a home with another member who loves it in his early '99 with stock sticks.

If you want a modded 140v I have one I can hook you up with. Roland modded it for me but I find it a tad touchy. Let me know if I can help you.

If he's not interested let me know. I want a modded IDM but have no soldering skills and don't want to take the chance of frying mine. I could pop that in when I do the IC boots and HPX I just ordered from you.
