Well, I've been preparing for the CPA visit for the annual blood-letting to the IRS. Staring at a computer screen of numbers for several days and looking at a retirement portfolio diving faster than a Stuka Dive-bomber will put anyone in a foul mood...
So I worked on the car
My UTEC arrived a couple days ago and was a pretty easy install, although the nifty little map switch wire was a bit of a pain to run across the lower dash area.
Unbelievable results. I would never have thought that a simple computer board would add that much performance. Absolutely fabulous results. The car has a great punch in the mid-range and goes bonkers over 5K RPM. I'm running jast a tad over 1 Bar boost, with next to no ping, but I am going to smooth the timing advance just a couple degrees to eliminate the knock at full tilt boogie. Can't test full bore 4th gear due to unacceptable speed. 3rd gear is definately the joy gear. WOW.
The leather interior job may begin this weekend, or maybe a motorcycle ride to mentally check-out for a while. Tough week, saved by a lovable Subie
Have a great weekend gang, it should be lovely here in the Sierras.
Cheers,
Kev
