AA review inside....
So I put in my AA upgraded ECU about a month ago, but the weather in Chicago has been absolutely terrible. Well we randomly had a 55 degree today, and I couldn't pass it up, I had to take the car out. So I went on a 75 mile cruise with a buddy. At first the car felt a little sluggish, but not as bad as I was expecting. After about 30 miles I starting getting on it harder. The car responded wonderfuly, it had very smooth acceleration and the power above 6000rpm felt AWESOME. I did only one full throttle run, from about 20mph to 100mph and I could tell a huge difference. I almost hit the rev limiter in 2nd gear because I was at 8400rpm before I knew it, the car ran through 3rd gear just as fast. The funniest part about the whole cruise was that the car is now averaging 17.0mpg since I installed the tune. This includeds a 10 minute idle from the first day I installed it. Before the tune I was only averaging 16.8mpg overall! So far I'm very pleased, now I just can't wait to get the AA pulley and the ram air scoops.

I got work this Sunday, if you want to meet up sometime that would be cool. I really haven' tried out the launch control much, other than flooring it and it does stop at 3700rpms which is what I asked. I'm in the western burbs, where exactly are you?
