Yes I'm happy. I keep looking for excuses to go for a drive. I had to go to the shops at the end of my street and ended up going for a half hour spin. Disconnecting the battery definitely helped, but I think after a while of driving the car, the ecu would learn the new mod anyway. I was impatient.
I'm curious about what time I'm going to run now. Hoping for mid 13's. Maybe....??? :eclipsee_

You all may have to run against the RTV yet - so watch it, OK!

You don't need to go out and try to break any records on your first run. But I think you will be surprised, once you get that first run out of the way you will be lining up for more. Its strangely addictive.

6000rpm is good cause it should still stick you in the powerband of the XR8.
Just your launch man, it needs work but I can forgive you for the last time out because it was your first time. ;)
