I just called Kaltech, they can fit me in next wednesday for $525.. Said he would need the car for a few days to get a tune done with everyone I have done to it.

What do you guys think? I have a friend with a G8 that has had mixed experiences with Kaltech.. those of you from Long Island chime in please! lol

Sounds good.. thanks guys.

I'm gonna have to play it smart driving out there. I was just driving around town and it stalled out on me 4 times while driving. This should be interesting.
