Yep. He said he was excited to do it. I need to give him a call tonight to let him know that it's ready whenever he is.

Did a little tuning this weekend. Got the Zero Throttle Maps, coolant correction, and IAC Motor going. The car starts right up hot or cold now, with out having to touch the pedal (most of the time ). I switched the 1600cc primaries out for 850s to make the initial tuning easier. The 1600s are super touchy if your base map isn't even almost close! I figure I'll get the driving portion close with the 850s, scale the map for 1600s and then drop them back in. Hopefully I'll get some driving tuning done next weekend.

Hard to see how anyone could get too upset over you pimpin' a "big bumper" Nova...kinda like a girl with alotta body back in school that people didn't think was all that until they realized you were tappin it. Looks like a ton of fun...big ups to you
