UPDATE

I decided to do an experiment. Yesterday I picked up some Lucas octane booster (remarkably, I've had great success in the past with this product) from pep boys and poured it in the tank and filled up. Reset the ecu and drove around normally for 25 miles or so.

That night when the air was cool I found an open stretch of road and floored it 1st through 3rd and was immediately impressed. It pulled just like it was supposed to. A couple minor hesitations that are hard to feel unless you're really paying attention, which will hopefully clean up after loading the cali 91 base map.

This leads me to believe that with the stock tmic I was getting by on the standard stg 2 91 map but the aftermarket tmic just pushed the tune over the edge. So if I'm correct then the less aggressive cali 91 map should hold me over until I get tuned.

Right now I'm just trying to borrow Cody's AP power cable and we're looking into getting Ed down here sometime soon to protune.
