Glad it all worked out. I knew that Don would do a good job tuning the car, looks like you made out really well. Love the video

Also sounds like your idle got much better over what it was before the tune.

Don did an awesome job - thanks for recommending him to me. He made the car driveable and tamed the monster cam. It really is amazing just how much these cars respond to tuning.

Thanks again

Your welcome, makes me wonder what we would do without someone like Don in our backyard, we are indeed fortunate in that regard.
