do you have a watch? a full minute is fine before driving. 2-3 miles down the road and you will be ok to give it a lil' bit more throttle.

Why hasn't your tuner fixed the driveability? The start-up and idle tables really aren't that hard if you know what you're doing. Take some fuel out of the cranking VE table (way to rich for aftermarket cams), increase the IAC's start-up airflow, and soften up some of the idle timers. If I had a shot at it from a cold start, I could have it idling like stock in less than an hour.

I always let all my cars warm up before going out. Even my stock 93 toyota corolla gets warmed up before i head out for work in the mornings. Now my mom has a 04 dodge neon and as soon as that baby starts shes on the road turning 4k i told her that her rings are gunna go if she doesn't cool down with the not letting it warm up but shes like well it should be ready when i am lol. I just say whatever lol.
