Awesome. I like the idle too, choppy but not too choppy. Sounded real mean when it was searching for idle. Was that untuned?

Untuned as of now and I can't decide whether to have it tuned by a shop or buy some software (i.e. HP Tuners or EfiLive) and tune it myself.

Buy software and learn to do it, you save yourself the $$ of getting retuned all the time and it allows you flexibility to change whatever you want quickly. Just read up on tuning and dont be afraid to ask questions in the tuning forum. There are a lot of people that can help you out tuning.

Yeah that is all that is done to it. I took it out for a quick drive and it pulled like a banshee. It has a lot more power according to my "seat-of-pants" dyno. My plans are to hopefully get LTs and true duals before spring. With the exhaust added to the cam that should give me like 30 more horsepower .
