Default One empty box. Need suggestions.

Yesterday UPS dropped off two big boxes.


Very good packing job on the blower, well thought out kit, bags all dated, with inspectors initials... Overall I am impressed by the quality of shipping & packing.

Inside I found one small box that was empty. I suspect that it normally contains a superchips hand held.


I guess it isn't included in the 01-23-60-133-BL kit???

I was planning on getting HP tuners after the install, but the plan was to get fuel mileage, interior dB, and 3 dyno runs with the canned tune first...

Now what? Options I see now:
1. Find someone on this site with the used maggie supplied hand held
2. Buy the hand held from Maggie
3. Buy HP tuners, and try to find a tune for a stock GTO with TVS2300 on the HP site
4. Buy HP tuners, buy a mail order from Frost or someone similar.
5. Find a local tuner to do all of the tuning (drive it or worst case load it on my trailer)

I don't like option 5 very much... Option 1 or 2 are my first choice, but perhaps the can tune won't work with the 2300?

The maggie website doesn't say anything about the 2300 kit being shipped minus the programmer.

I plan on giving them a call, but don't expect them to be open until Monday...

I was planning to do the installation over the weekend...
