I have finally joined the 3L club . So far everything is going well, the car is idling like a stock SVT which is good. I must say it pulls nicely compared to the SVT engine. Right now I have put a 132miles on the new clutch and the engine and well I couldn't resist I opened it up and wouldn't ya know as soon as I did I got a CEL (ended up being the front O2 Sensor). The only problem that I'm really having right now is that 2nd gear and Reverse only want to work when they feel like it. When 2nd does work I have to hold it there for about 1.5 seconds then it will engage otherwise it just pops into neutral. In regards to reverse same thing I will put into reverse and it goes fine, then the next time I go to put it in reverse it wont engage. 4th gear seems unaffected.

Once the clutch is broken in I will be installing my VCN 2000 kit and getting a tune. Should I be getting areading from my XCAL2 now and send off the information to am SCT Dealer to get a tune sent to me?
