I saw the same Orange FR-S on Terrell Mill Road and at Publix on Delk 4 times yesterday..I think it had drive out tags, so whoever it belongs to is probably looking for places to go so they can drive it

You can use my cable if you want.. I probably won't be needing it until my next mod, which won't be for a while. I'm up around the Lawrencville/Buford area quite a bit, along hwy 20 (buford drive), so just let me know. I noticed you got FA20club's headers too. If you're getting their 93/E85 tune, you won't be dissapointed.

Thanks for the offers guys! @killerkid08 was able to help me out. I was able to use his cable to get the base 93 tune in place and send tony a few logs. I should have my cable in a week or so and will continue to fine tune on that. I did get an e85 tune but am tuning 93 first. I have noticed a difference with just the base file. Engine runs a lot smoother, exhaust doesn't sound quite as loud, and got an MPG boost as well. The car just feels so "electric" now that the dip is gone.

Glad it worked out for you.. Totally agree about 'electric' feel once the dip is gone! And the boost in MPG (on 93 octane) is awesome as well, especially cruising on hwys.

BTW, once you get your E85 tune, just fyi.. the BP gas station on Grayson hwy (hwy 20, in Lawrenceville) has the cheapest E85 prices I've seen.. $3.19 as of yesterday, and it's been at that price all spring. Price jumped up briefly last week, but came back down again this week.

It was me in the whiteout more than likely. I work at the airport

Bryan did hard body on mine last summer. It still looks great, he does a meticulous job. His web site is www.peachstatedetail.com.

I'd also recommend Bryan. He's a bit of a ways from Alpharetta, but his work is certainly worth the trip.

Just passed by an Asphalt over by Peachtree Ridge Park; I didn't even realize it until we were passing each other, though.
