Can't wait to see!

Have you removed the old stuff yet (motor)? I was really hoping to see a dyno and / or a few track runs with your setup, for comparison.

Also, have a question for you. You're not using the IAC on your current / old setup? You just adjusted the throttle stop screw to give you a good idle? I've been trying to figure out how to make the auto trans shift better during the 1-2 shift, I adjusted my TPS to up the idle a little but it also seems to have changed the shift points a bit.

I've been exploring possibilities and doing a ton of research on the auto box, trying to make it shift harder / better.

Never dyno'ed or tracked it. Was going to dyno tune w/9lbs boost but decided to not spend the $700 and just throw it in the new set up. Yes I just used the throttle screw to adjust my idle and it runs great! I had the same sluggish shift problem and then put in the 6-speed and it went away.

I have not taken apart the car yet but very soon I will.
