Okay well I decided to just support GST and I like keeping all the same company parts working together. I ordered the GST boost pill today. The lady I talked to said that they got the situation worked out and there should never be another delay in ordering. She said you will always get a tracking number now. Because of the monday's holiday I should have the pill by tuesday or wednesday now. I hope the cable at least comes on friday or saturday so I can upload the tune without the pill then add the pill and retune or reflash.

Hot start issue??
Has anyone experienced hot start problems? I drove my car for 20-30 min. and shut it off for about 1/2 to 1hr. It still displayed 1 bar on engine temp. I tried to start it again and it just turned over like a was out of gas or had no spark. I held it for much much long then normal until it started to catch. I held a bit longer and it was spinning enough to run on it's own with out the assistance of the starter. The weather here was about mid 90's and very humid. If that makes a difference. It ran perfect once it was started but not sure why it did it in the first place??

What I do now is: I put ignition to ON (the fan blow, the radio starts), I wait about 3 or 4 seconds. And I start the engine.
I don't know if that really helps or if I've been lucky...

It did it on me a few time when I was at my other place. Someone told me it's because the fuel pump did not have enough time to start properly or something like that.

I would love to think this is all normal but find it hard to believe. There is fuel in the rail and lines. There isn't full pressure but there is definitely fuel. Makes me think that is not what it is. I guess it could be a faulty pump that caused the problem but it ran fine once it started. This is the first day with the tune and such high humidity and temp.
