Probably borrow my Dad's car. The fuck I'm going to wait to weeks for this crap.

Reprogrammed the computer with the latest software (probably will take 30hp from me ) and also programmed the FRM module???

They didn't see any faults in the computer on the issue. So we'll see.

Once his V8 engine starts redlining at 8300 RPM, there shouldn't be no regrets at all.
