If you don't have a wideband get one before you have Curt mess with your tune. I am not bashing Curt but a wideband is a must with a tuned car.

Hey I can speak from a mangers point of view.....one of my very good friends works under me and my district and territory mangers were making me cut his hours to 20 a week trying to get him to quit until I told them no and that I wanted to cut his pay .50/hr and give him 40hrs in another part of my business.....it worked...but I also just had to fire a guy who was a great worker and good person.....this economy sucks and is screwing everyone.....Im afraid to upgrade my car too much and deplete my funds because you just never know these days......
