    Congratulations.

    I tuned on my truck for about six months then ImportThis's truck for a couple months before I got a good knowledge. Then started tuning tire and gear changes for guys around town. It has progressed from there for me to tuning head and cam cars. No FI yet still find it very intimidation on HPT.(means I need to read more). However, I will let you in on a secret about HPT if you read on there forum and think it looks like they are speaking Greek. It is not just you who thinks this. When I first started I thought everything was Greek now only a small part of it looks that way.

    Haha. Maybe you just need to be in the "IN CROWD" with Allen Nelson to get it through him like I did.

    Sweet playboy, now we can do some tuning on both of ours. I still think you could have found it cheaper...lol

    Oh, and I meant your mother the other day when she came into the dealership, she had some funny things to say about you...
