Well tonight I went back to the track without my PB and let me tell you what a disappoinment.
There were a few differences between this time and the last.
1. there was a slight head wind
2. I neglected to change my oil
3. I lowered tire PSI to 22 (dumb ***)
4. Last time I went it was in the 40's tonight was more like 70-80's
Anyway I managed a best time of 16.821. I couldn't get anything in the 2.3XX 60's
Everything else was in the low 17's like when I was stock.
I want to say here that I was proven wrong that the PB was not working for me. I had it retuned so hopefully if it doesn't rain next week I will go back and see what my "new" tune can do.
Here is the slip from tonight:
r/t----------.789
60'---------2.481
330--------7.045
1/8th------10.791
MPH-------65.70
1000------14.058
1/4--------16.821
MPH-------80.49
BUY the PB
It works!!!!!

I'll also add that the last time I was there I ran a worst time of 16.616 and if you look at the slips you can see how there is much more power up top with the PB. Without the PB the car seems to wheez out of power at the end of the track
Here's the old slower slip
R/T----------.614
60'----------2.455
330---------7.036
1/8---------10.752
MPH--------66.12
1000-------13.942
1/4---------16.616
MPH--------83.58
My best time again is 16.403 with the PB

Yeah i was actually in a car last night that had the piggy, CAI, and catback i believe. It was really quite fast. I still noticed myself waiting for the boost to kick in but 
Anyways, i was happy with it as the lancer has always seemed slow to me NA... until now!

I emailed gabe@roadracemotorsports.com.
I get the rest of the day off work tomorrow, I think I'm going to unplug the whole unit and 100% make sure the stalling issue goes away without it. then re-wire the piggyback for a FOURTH time and see if its there. the stalling issue ONLY Happens when I start the car if I dont give it extra gas. If putting the piggyback back on after the reinstall and 200km of driving doesnt correct the issue, I want to mail it back and try a new one, or get a different product from you guys. I REALLY want this to work but so far no luck. I've even plugged the car into a ODBI and no error codes at all. I've also gotten 3 seperate mechanics as well as a stereo installer to check my install, and they say its fine.
PLEASE HELP PLEASE HELP

this probably should go in the ecu review thread but I reinstalled mine and it idles even better than before. I'll have to wait to open it up to see if there is anything new there but so far so good for 50 odd miles.
