When ever UPS, Fedex or USPS delievers something to my house, I always feel like Im last on the list. I never get a package earlier than 3pm.

I know what you mean. When it comes from the main UPS facility near me, I don't get my packages until 5-6pm. Since it's coming from a different facility this time, I'm hoping it comes earlier (even if I won't be home until 5-6).

Well let us know how it goes when you get it. Are you taking your power wire out before you install it?

I'm not sure. I kinda forgot about it. I might send AIRRAM an email and see if the two get along with each other. If I don't hear back before tonight, I'll probably just pull it out for now.

And MrCrash, lets hope yours comes today! I wish the 05-07 models had as many options as your 08. Let us know what you can do with the transmission.

And congrats to you Josh! I tuned my truck and took it on a back country road and I couldnt get it above 110. It was a little hilly and bumpy so I had to let off a couple times so I will have to try it again. That was also before I put on my exhaust which I think I gained a little top end hopefully. All I know is 3rd gear sucks in my truck. That thing will pull all the way to 85mph in 2nd gear, and once it hits 3rd all the power is gone. It pulled me up to that 110 region, but it was crawling slowly and I was running out of road. Why did you have to send it to SC to get reflashed? Couldnt you just update it on your computer?
I had to send it to them cause it was Vin locked to the previous owner costs 100 to get unlocked and I bought it for 50 so I'm way under retail new and it works perfect.

Gotcha. I know if you have a log on and password, after you update the tuner it allows you to unlock the tuner for $100 right at home.

Well, lets just say I haven't stopped grinning yet, and I parked it three hours ago

I'm debating if I should sum up my thoughts here, or if a new thread would be appropriate.
