The above is true.

I just don't see how it happened. I noticed the rough idle after I put my seats back in after giving the car a good vacuum. I didn't even touch the hood latch. But yeah, now that I'm back on track, and Christmas is over, I can now get back to researching turbo's and such.

good job, if a couple of you guys 4 ATLEAST wanna come down at one time, we can set-up a small Dyno/tune day like we posted right before my grandmother died and we had to postpone, this would save you guys some in the pocket as well but we would need atleast 4 and would like to have 5. The guys who need work done would need to come down thursday-fri for wrenching and tuning would be done on sat. LMK what u guys think and maybe we can work out a day just for you guys

Forgot to mention something.

The car was running stupid lean. While cruising at ~80mph my AFR was 16.1-16.4! I'm surprised my **** didn't blow up. And gas mileage sucked *****. I'm guessing the ECU was spitting fuel out to keep the motor from blowing up.
