1. getting around 25 in combined cty/hwy w/ 72# injectors. idle hasn't been an issue. kind of nice being on the highway cruising at 90 and only at 5-6% duty cycle...:)
2. open loop all the time. just passed full blown massachusetts emissions test, and without a cat.
3. no pics yet. not a digital camera guy. been meaning to, but just haven't yet.

issues i'm still dealing w/:
1. cold start, it does not like starting when cold, and the idle hunts until it reaches operating temp. so the warmup maps are off, but i have trouble getting the time to really hunker in and fix it.
2. throttle response - still working on snappy throttle response. it stutters a little when i go to the floor. ok, when feathered in. need to work with the enrichment a little.
3. slipping clutch at 13 psi in 5th gear on the highway, and only 6-7 months old. it really sucks when i go to pull away from someone ridding my a$$ only to have the engine rev...:(
4. mixture change when engine is hot (stop and go traffic) and voltage drops. been looking at running higher rated alt (per jeff c) to help carry load with battery in the trunk.

that's about where i am right now. the process is slow, but am truely happy with this route. so much potential...
