Dang, 7 months! Well, hopefully today you are on a bus heading over to pick your car up. Sorry to hear about the divorce, I have another friend going though that as well, so I can see how much of a pain it is. Hope you can square everything away quickly and move forward with your life.. (at a much faster speed too )

Wear some garlic cloves and keep a rabbit foot handy.

You'll get the car soon enough. You are in the final stretch. It's normal to have issues like this popup with such high power output. They will get ironed out.

And since I want a ride as soon as you get it back, to satiate your need for speed, feel free to drop by for a short cruise to tide you over till your baby is back

Well I have the car back I am so happy to have her back I just got back from Austin, I am very pleased with the power even though he tuned it conservatively at 374. I was hoping for 400 but it is crazy fast I can't wait to get her on the track. I am having clunking sound that they think might be the upper strut mount bushing. It ran great no problems and I like the valve body up grade I was able to scratch 3rd gear . I am going to spend tomorrow detailing her, make her look as good as she runs.
