No no no....I said Id trade him my CL for his TL. BUT I want to swap the transmissions. Mine is a 6MT, his is an 5AT.


BTW, update on the FR-S - I got a new ECU ROM file last night, so Im flashing it right now. Its supposed to fix the MAF issue we've been having. Hopefully it does, I hate not having any responsiveness below 3k rpms.

I drove to work on the new tune. It feels like it pulls a bit harder up top, but high load situations at ~2k rpms causes a stutter. Ill have to datalog it for a bit and send my tuner the files so he can tweak the tune a bit if it doesnt work itself out over the next 50 miles or so.

...and for that, I thank you!
I think it's amazing how tuners can look at data files remotely and send you a new tune. How great is that.

NP, and I really mean it. Even being murdered out, you have just enough blue/teal to balance it and it pulls it off perfectly. Wing FTW too

Not really. Modding is in a hold pattern for now, unless its an inexpensive DIY type mod. Im waiting for SEMA to decide what I want to get next.

And Im in your shoes ATM, in the process of moving

Yea, I posted the vid a day or two after the resonator was replaced. The exhaust sounds exactly the same, just without the resonance.

Yea. Its horrible/awesome

The check is nice, but actually putting in the hours is draining. Thats why I usually only pull these hours every other week at most. Right now Im sitting at 54hrs. Ill probably work another 6-8hrs today and another 5-6hrs tomorrow. I'd like to wash the car in the AM and Im not working late into the night. I did that shit last week

The taxes are going to fucking suck for this pay period though
