- Background
- This was my good friend Cody's car. He was murdered 6 years ago and it has taken me that long to get it from the guy who had it sitting the whole time. Origionally tuned on AEM ems series 1 by Kaizenspeed in Kennewick, WA. The aem ems injector drivers just went out so switching to blackbox and trying to figure the tunes out. I did purchase a base tune from Jestr tuning yesterday. Not sure if I still need ceddymods but am willing to pay ceddy's $30 fee if so.

- This was when Brandon Vasquez owned it. I know it had timing pulled due to explosive backpressure. Put oh a higher flowing exhaust since and ran the bov correctly (it was on the hot side of the intercooler. Hoping it will be able to go waaayyy higher now.
