Overall day one was a major success. Sorry I didn't post last night, but I don't have internet access at home. Scott started with a WRX in the morning that he was very pleased with. It is actually my old ECU from my 2004. Next he worked on a 2004 STI with an SR 50 and front mount. Scott got it about 70% there because most of the time they were chasing around blown-off intercooler piping. This tune will move to Saturday for completion. And finally we finished up on my car. When Scott arrived Tuesday night he began by reading the current output of my ECU and put together an initial basemap. It turned out to be right on and most tuners would have stopped there, but he went the extra mile and adjusted the map to utter perfection. I was very impressed with the level of detail that he puts into his work. If something was even a little off he would go back in and make sure that it was right. Let's just put it this way, if I had a child and it needed to be road tuned Scott would be working on him/her. Forgive me, it is kind-of early, the analogies are a little weak in the AM. But you get the general idea. The bad thing is that I didn't even drive it last night after he was done, I just was tired and figured that I could get on it a little this morning. I pulled out onto the road and bumper-to-bumper traffic. So, I didn't ever have a chance to get on it. But when Scott drove it, it felt very strong. It really pushes you back in the seat! I can't imagine the feeling that some of you guys get with these big turbos. Stay tuned for more.

So what's going on saturday? I see 2 people at 8:00 am and damn that's early. What time is Scott leaving on saturday? I am just stopping by saturday to meet everyone and have Scott check my idle and that's it ... shouldn't take long at all unless he has some updates 
Wondering if I can show up a little later?
If not 8:00 am is fine
