Hi Gang back from New York. Everything went well. Quite an interesting place to say the least. Daughter and Her choral group did great. Many college groups from around country and they brought in a super conductor and award winning to boot. He just came back from a tour of Italy and Austria with a try out only chamber choir and just blew people away there. Hate to sound like such a proud Dad but, the conductor just continueously raved about My daughters college. This group is very dedicated to performance and not just going through the motions. We got there first even days ahead of others and left last. He consistantly sent them out early from practice raveing about how well prepared they were. There college director had drilled them for months as in reality they were the smallest school their and by far the less prestigous choir. Anyway they went last and all the others were good and the conductors chamber group performed was head and shoulders above everyone else. But, and again I hate to sound like a homer but, the daughter of the Texas Women's Choir, that was the first to perform, said when Our kids started, being the last of the night, that on the first line She immediately saw and heard the commitment to this opportunity Our director and kids took. Everyone there knew immediately they sounded better instantly than all but, the conductors chamber group. They received a standing ovation and allot I guess due to the fact they were such a small group yet performed so powerfully. This is a little girl from a abandoned spot in the road and She was scared to death. She was the only one of Her group who had completely memorized all of her material which the conductor noticed She was not brinig Her music book to practice.

Well thanks for Your patience on letting me brag but, now I have actually some advice on the tuning issue.

I'm buying HP Tuning software with 2 bar density (now getting ready to offer 3 bar) so I will go with 3 bar and some additional features that allow You to really fine tune safely with the specs it provides from PCM. It is a wideband tune so You have to add one wideband oxygen sensor in front of cat of course. My plan is to run tuning software off the small PC I will have to operate the touchscreen, video, audio, Nav, etc. It will be there to bring up on the screen anytime i want if nothing else just to check and make sure nothing is changing. Nelson Performnance highly recomends it and You can have someone with you in the rig running down the road on the freeway or city street and tune it in real time and more precise with laptop than on a dyno. Real world, should produce better out come. The 2 bar density is for if You decide to run more than 5 or 6 pounds of boost which I will most likely do on occasion. The investment is steep but, I think in the long run like HpTuning told Me will prevent You from toasting and engine along with the gauge center I installed that Jonahs designed, I will be prepared always and can tune on the go anytime. If I understand correctly from My talks with Hp is that they will have a 3 bar which will allow You to take MAF and physically remove it from intake system.
It appears there is no real inexpensive option to do it right. I'm going to learn the tuning Myself. Hp said it will be easy but, still a learning curve to perfect it.
You also get 2 vehicles with the kit with 2 seperate cables that will match the rig You buy it for. But, the nice thing is it is not vin specific and if You get 1 car it will work for all cars like it.
Hope some of this is helfull but, it just is going to cost to tune it the way it should be.
