After you get your ECU back I think you should come over to U.S. 41 on Sat. It is just a little further than Byron for you. It cost 25 to race and the track is nice.

Chi-Town SRT/6 that attachment made my day. I'll have to re use that real soon. Thanks and keep us looking good at the track. Did you check out the calculator for correcting your track time. Can you post your conditions so I can compare it.
Thanks,
Cruzinquick

I gotta keep things interesting around here... It's really boring after 4 years... And there's such a lack of new information and original ideas that I'm going to fall off my chair !!!

The guy from InMotion I believe his name is Richard if memory serves me, is really a good resource... I spoke with him over a year ago and he seems to know his stuff...

PS: I like the RETARD photo !!! Now at least that's original !!! LOL

I know how it can be on these boards.

I try to help everyone that I can, I always answer all the PM's with the best of my ability and yet I made some wise-cracks about that silly little "Sprint Booster" and was attacked and villified by members that I have never known much less seen a decent or technical post from.

HDDP's gave a harmless crack that has been blown out of proportion. He also provides great posts and has provided info that has helped me on several issues.

Chi-Town is doing awesome work and providing great write ups - I look forward to reading how the ECU tune works out.

I think some of you are all just aggressive "A" - type competitive speed demons.

But don't change a thing - man!!

BTW - Wise-cracks help spice things up a bit.

Endless posts for help on SB, Filters, Rotex pads, Etc.. while necessary for new members can get a bit stale.

But I love the new V-8 swaps, intake systems, grills and other mod's I see going on - I say keep it all up. I sure enjoy and look forward to reading it all.

Has anyone else gone through PowerchipGroup, for flashing there ECU? There was two options to go, either 91 gold or the 93 gold, depending on your fuel you could get. I noticed an improvement!

I'm new to this board and hope to be an owner this weekend if all goes well this weekend. As far the wise cracks, alot is just meant has harmless banter, that if said to each other in the garage while working would cause a laugh. Unfortunately when read on an internet forum, can come across as more of a dig or an insult then I think it was meant to be. Hey Chi-towns picture was funny and used as a rebutle and HDDP had a good laugh. I've been a member of the Dieselplace for 6 years and these comments or attitudes always manifest themselves. It is easier to make wise cracks behind a keyboard. Everyone has a common interest here and the board is a great source for upgrades and testing, repair and trouble shooting. With forums like this you always need to take some comments with a grain of salt

My Cummins is faster than your Duramax!

In HDDP's defense........There's so many questions asked that have already been discussed. If everyone was to do a search before posting It would be much easier. The more threads that are started about the same topic just make it harder to search without getting 2 pages of threads. Pretty soon, searching is going to be about totally useless.

I got the PowerChip Gold 93 about three years ago... It did produce notable performance improvement, but read my extensive posts on the subject of "off the shelf" ECU tunes... The maps are identical and were generated by Bosch / Mercedes for routine tuning and maintenance of the engine... The difference between the PC 91 and 93 is the amount of timing advance of the tune-up...

Welcome to the forum Bulldogger... We all appreciate your understanding of the fact that nobody can see the smile on the posters face when he / she makes sarcastic comments... There really is a plethora of infomation on this board and I have not seen an original question that has not already been answered, for more than a year...

The ECU location and removal has a terrific step-by-step tutorial here on the forum which was kindly posted by one of our members quite awhile back...

I'm sorry if I offended someone with my comment... I used to post "USE YOUR SEARCH BUTTON KNUCKLEHEAD" but everyone got mad at me for that stuff too !!!

Now given that I'm fairly new around here myself. I think there is a good deal of new informatin that is coming forth, especially in the SRT section. Now that the cars are cheap enough for teh common man, I think we will continue to see new ideas and upgrades that have not been done before.
