Actually I thought your exhaust would be a bit louder but i'm sure it was muffled a bit by the dyno.
I think before we do another long trip, Mike, we're going to make a lot of local excursions to make sure nothing else is lurking! I did ask Brian about making a pull with the exhaust open, but he said the only reason it would make more power that way was if the exhaust was severely restricted, so we didn't bring on the noise.

I thinks so too, Jason. Plugging in a new base tune made a huge difference right off the bat, so there was obviously something really wrong with the existing one. Probably no way it would have wound up that way without some underlying issue.

Yes he does, Chip. He said more to me in the first couple of minutes than the first guy did the entire time I was in his shop. Main thing for me was that he seemed to really know his stuff and didn't get sidetracked by my theories.

Thanks, Duane. Kathy and I took it to the car show over in Bonner Springs last Saturday and it ran like a champ all the way there and back home. We have some more cruise in's coming up and Kathy has some remodeling plans for the house so I'll take some snaps of it in the Lowe's parking lot.
