Just makes ya wish you bought a MTX!!!!! :p  I wish I bought a MTX and my ATX isn't even f*cked up.

i've done numerous "dumps" yet, nothing really has happened, i broke a weld on my exhaust once, um... and broke 2 drive shafts. both on the left side. the reason for that i believe is i had a broken rear motor mount, which caused the engine to sit wrong, and not move correctly.

btw, a chip does not remove the limiter in park or anything, or at least mine doesn't, and i got mine from the creator of the diablo chip, i can get you a good deal if you want one custom burned, supposedly it's superiour to Superchips.

I was going to wait until after I do exhaust, but I'm only going to go for mild exhaust changes -- probably change muffler & res but leave stock pipe in place -- so I might as well look into getting it now. I haven't yet gotten the code letters off the computer, but I can do that any time... (EDIT) My code is... ... EBA4!
You have a private message.

Diablo sucks...... Just what I've heard from some of my customers, I don't know from personal experience. My belief is that you can get better HP and TQ gains from the Superchip.

The rev limiter is for criuse control. If were to get bumped into nuetral it'll spin up until the engine blows.
