FDNewbie has it right. Pettit loves the capabilities of the Wolf but Cam just doesn't have tons of tuning experience on the unit. Chris offered to come down as my car is one of the first 20Bs with the unit.
I hate being the tester guy!

Quickie update: it's going much better now. Cam reloaded a base map from Chris and has been modifying if for the past hour or so with the use of the dyno. The car sounds much better than when he started. The car had way too much fuel on load and Cam has been working this out.
Hope to be on the raod back home soon!

I think Chris just came out w/ a new Wolf unit (new version).

Update!
Yes, I haven't posted in the past 24 hours and I'm still at Pettit. Let's say it's been very interesting. Hats off to Pettit though with getting the Wolf unit to work correctly on the 20B.
I'll soon post a detailed, day by day synopsis of the experience, including multiple pics.
I was expecting to go home yesterday but ended up at the shop until midnight with Cam on the phone with Wolf Australia. The Wolf version 4D has many, many great features but works differently from most EMS systems. Although the last 2 days have been frustrating, in the long run the Wolf will be worth it.
In a nutshell, what should have taken an hour to complete on the dyno with tuning has turned into a 72 hour ordeal. There is light at the end of the tunnel though and I did drive the car to the hotel last night. I'm tired by very excited also.
Will post more soon. Am headed back to the dyno to see how Cam is doing!
