  • Mail order tune arrived!

    So, as you know, I'm sick.

    I got out of the hospital yesterday and feel like crap. Just before I went into the hospital I ordered a mail order tune for the T/A.

    It arrived yesterday :) Just as we got home from the hospital - that was a bit of good medicine

    trifecta Performance is the company - tuning is done by the guy at pcm for less.

    It is sitting here next to me.... all I need to do is convince my wife to take the hand held unit and plug it into the T/A and viola. But then she needs to test drive it....... :(

    I'm not allowed to do anything per the doctor, the wife... and anybody else who knows me.... sigh.

    The less I do.... the faster I get better.

    I hope that this puts the T/A at just over 300 rwhp and can run 13.5 That will make it a decent daily driver power wise.

          I want to make this car a well rounded daily driver - just enhance the braking, handling, power etc. I would like to see a 13.0-13.5 street driven car and still have the 2:73's for fuel economy- I'll see it by the end of the year.


          And yes.... when a car guy or gal is sick.... best thing to do is buy parts :)
