I have gotten my issue worked out.... For some reason, once I had gotten the car put completely back together the error had gone away... Very weird... anyway, I seem to be all good now... My gauge seems to be sitting at -18 to 20 at idle... is this normal???

Your idle is normal, same as mine.

Have no clue about why the SOS light came on.

GL to you!

It worked itself out... there may be some sensor somewhere in relation to the side airbag cover being off or something...once I snapped the center consul back in, the trim over my feet and side air bag cover, it went away.... I took pics throughout the install that I'll post up later...

Rixst3r... thanks for the gauge man, it looks awesome. Im glad it's finally in...

Hey, glad you got it taken care of.

My guess would be that there is some sensor on the A-pillar cover.

Go do some runs and PM me with what you see your Dinan tune putting down. Also, let me know an update on the V2. I am still interested....
