Re: met up with Xray today
I would like to thank Jim just as I was getting into Lauderdale my IAT jumped to over 200 and my car became gutless. Well it appears that I am now suffering from the dreaded IC Pump failure. Jim had a extra one in his garage and gave it to me I can only say that It is people like Jim that makes doing what we do with these cars worth doing. I will be putting it in either tomorrow or wed after I get My new Mani's from NW. I must admit I was really happy I had my Dashdaq today because I could watch that stupid pump kick in and out as my IAT went from 100 to over 200 and then just as quick drop back again. It worked for about 80% of my 200 mile trip home.
Also a quick thank you to Justin and Jerry of Let for standing behind there tune.

i put mine on last weekend and you would cringe at seeing all that oil buildup inside the t/b and my oem mani's. they were coated and the t/b had a lip of sludge all around the butterfly . just caked with oil buildup

Re: met up with Xray today
just to be correct guys the -10 * fan mod is just a star diagnostics telling the fan to com on at 185 instead of 195. it shuts off at the appropiate temps.
