Sounds good, but what is your idle speed? It seems high to me.

since it has not been tuned we adjusted the throttle body so it would idle a little higher and not cut off every chance my foot comes off the pedal, it does lope pretty nice when its normal but i can not get a tune until i get back and if i did mail order i would not know what to give them as my response on their order forms to at least get her running decent
