definitely undestand and just need to get it functioning properly before I waste a tuners time. Looks like I can’t pick up the new HP Tuners pro yet as it isn’t out with its re release yet.

Buy the standard then upgrade to the pro when it's released, you can download a base tune and get the car going then take it to a tuner once you've worked out the bugs.

Good news, I was able to get a fire ring/valve seat for the tial locally and able to hit like 3-4 psi. That's a start. Now I can get a base line tune and work out some kinks.

Thanks all!
