LasVegas is off the scale

Didn't mean to be short there Ken. I've thought about the transmission but I guess I'm doing this for different reasons than most. I just want to "wake it up" a little, you know like avoiding those silly downshifts going up a grade, etc. I doubt that I'll drive it any differently than now and you sure won't see me on a drag strip so I'm not going to do the transmission. That's also why 5 lbs boost is fine for me. Side benefit will be it's less expensive, mpg increase, and about a one day install. You get a pre-tuned PCM that you just swap out & return your old one. I spoke with a friend of mine back east (DynoTune) that has seen the application & tells me they're very well engineered and work quite well. Should be an interesting project and I'll let everyone know how it goes and the results.
