i think we are all clear. you are just worried about your baby. everyone is when their car is in the shop...or trying something that is new. i tuned lots of cars...but none was more nerve rackign than tunign my OWN car to the record. my hands were shaking i was so nervous.

One of my questions:

why are you so worried about the motor if you have a TT shortblock? they are very stout and as long as the shop starts conservative and works their way up from there you should have no problems. I have seen lots of TT supras run mroe than 20 psi on race gas that was less than C-16. C-16 is a very good fuel, but not always necessary. unless i am missing a hidden factor like the SC head bumps the compression to 9.5 or something??

well anyway, i have no experience with the shop you took the car to. but generally, if they screwed somethign up big time...and didnt take care of the owner. you would have heard about it on the internet by now. as you know the www is a very unforgiving place.
