Damn Carlos, the exact same thing happened to me on my way to work a few weeks ago, crusing at 75 in the middle lane and a UPS truck merges st8 into the middle lane, I went from 75 to 40 in what felt like less than a second! Having power is nice, but doesn't mean shit unless your brakes can keep you out of the body shop!

Thx guys for the tune summaries.

So regarding the LET tune and Ben's response of prefering the GT1 preference over the software equivalent for code clearing that there is not yet a portable version? Not a huge deal, I would just have to visit the shop before any service visits to make sure.
