im good, on a side note I created my first thread in the software tuning section. asking for help/clarifications on a few things if anyone is knowledgeable. I have tagged moto-east too as they had originally done the tune on the car.

That is very much like the computer that I did my high school "computer sciences" on. Was 50 minutes a day of learning how to punch cards and feed them in.
Would love to know how the computing power of our car's ECU stacks up to one of those babies? Anybody?

I like to fit in... I've just heard the stories though, my first computer had 2k of RAM with an extended 16k module and a 3.25MHz cpu. It used magnetic tape storage, thankfully.
