Now that that's over Im ready to move on, the shop that installed my parts suggested a Tune, I told them that I had the COBB Access Port and it was mentioned that I should do a custom tune via data logging using my COBB access port.
Do know how all this works ?
Is there a tuner in FL like MI Tuners or ? that can do a custom tune ? I googled MI but came up empty.

Thanks
Where in FL are you?

Sorry at first I thought the guy on the phone (poor connection) said MI Tuning in Fl. I just called again to confirm that it's M Engineering and is located in Tempe AZ and not FL.

Bought a Carbonio (front license plate attacher) after a helpful reminder from the police. Apparently there's no more serious crime in Chicago in need of addressing...

(value of ticket * chance it will get paid) / chance of getting shot while issuing ticket

I mean, if I was a police officer it seems a safe strategy. But yes it's silly. I blame whoever makes that a law more than the officers enforcing it. I don't think it should be up to officers to arbitrarily decide which laws make sense to enforce, even though we obviously have this expectation.

I would never blame law enforcement for enforcing any law, it's their job. I blame the scumbag politicians from fleecing tax payers pockets for their BS agenda....

I'll be putting the new rims on within the next few days. Decided that all the gold bits should be silver to make it only red, black and silver all around. Installed the new hood crest and just received the "hub caps" - yeah that's what they're called for center locks for some odd reason - and painted them to match the hood crest (I have a lot of time on my hands) :P Almost lost my eyesight doing it lol

They were Matt black with a silver shield, but the silver looked rather grey and not silver. Adding the red made the silver stand out. I then sprayed them with crystal clear enamel. I think they look pretty good.

Silver wheels really brightens up and pops the carmine red. You'll be very happy with the new look. Great choice.

You're so right Clubber, though I do like a touch of black

Wheels/tires mounted and installed. A little bath and it was tucked away.
