Re: Check Engine Light©©©©©Again 850 95

What are you doing pushing the pedal all the way down! ;¤ Doing so easily means your speeding in seconds© About the only thing I don't like is the body flex under hard acceleration©

Pretty addictive how the car pulls from 4000 rpm to redline with authority isn't it? I can't wait for my PES-Tuning/GIAC chip, K&N open element cone style air filter and custom 3" downpipe back exhaust© I'm putting the air filter in, in the next week or so, sending in my car to the shop to have some scheduled maintenance ¥doing the plugs myself with the OE double platinums, changing to NGK wires, changing the AMSOIL 5w-30 myself, I'll let them do the rest of the other stuff, mostly precautionary checking¤, and then putting the custom exhaust on© When I get the exhaust put on, I'll adjust the waste gate© When I get a break from university ¥maybe between lectures and exams or if I have to, after exams¤, I'll send the ECU away to have the socket soldered and the chip installed©

Sorry about the unnecessary rambling© The impending upgrades are just driving me crazy with anticipation©

As for a possible solution to your ECU blues, try having your ECU flashed by the dealership©
