You're absolutely right! Just played a bit and it's a night and day difference. :happydance:

Wife and I are driving the roadster out into the country tonight to try and catch some of the meteor shower. Beautiful night. Should be a blast.

Questions for you uprevvers...

Does an uprev tune void warranty?

Since I live in a place far far away (star wars song plays now) from any tuned, is it possible to just buy a preprogrammed ecu flash and tune my that way? Btw, mods for me is just an exhaust.

Anytime you tweak the factory ecu you are potentially voiding the warrantee on any and all related parts. That said, I among many others here have UpRev'd our cars w/no ill effects and frankly, if you are going to do alot of mods, then you'll need to tune to make the car safe a/f ratio wise.

If all you have/are doing is a CBE, then absolutely NO need to tune.

Not today, but while I was in Dallas over the weekend, I had the Z detailed. I just can't find time to do it myself anymore, but I found someone as OCD as myself and it's working for me.

Motored out to Shakedown BBQ in Grantville, PA with a six pack of Leinenkugel's in the trunk and enjoyed a few pounds of smokey ribs and brisket.
QD'd off the bugs and put the cover on for the next few days of rain. You know the drill.

My girlfriend *sigh* tried to turn too sharp in the driveway on her Triumph Speed Triple, and tipped it sideways into my Z.

Aside from some nasty bruises on her leg she is ok.

As for the Z, there is a huge dent in the rear quarter and a nice scratch in the side skirt.

I've decided not to park in the driveway anymore. :shakes head:

Red__Zed 08-13-2011 08:48 AM

Sat outside with her waiting for rims and splitter to show up.

Fire 08-13-2011 08:50 AM

Kewl looking bike J. Sorry for the scratch though. :shakes head: Hope you get it fixed soon.
Red I'm waiting for my mod4cars smart top module it is only a 1 1/2 hour drive away at a UPS terminal but it isn't supposed to get here till Monday.

I'm battling ups. They keep claiming I'm not here when I am...so I'm waitin outside.

I guess they don't feel like carrying my rims to the door.

Fire 08-13-2011 08:58 AM

I had a Fed Ex truck stop in my driveway, the two guys looked through the truck for 15 minutes then left. I got an e-mail saying that I wasn't home to recieve a package. When they delivered the packages the next day they admitted that the package wasn't in the truck the day before. I recieved a bill from them for additional shipping, I didn't pay it and haven't gotten another one.:ugh2:

Footloose301 08-13-2011 09:04 AM

That's odd. If there was no package to be had.... How would they know you were expecting? Perhaps the box was damaged so they re-boxed it the next day?

Fire 08-13-2011 09:07 AM

Somebody had scanned it at the terminal but didn't put it on the truck. I actually recieved two packages I had been waiting for the next day. I think it was my side blades and rear diffuser from evo-r and and the pro alignment kit from stillen.

I want one too but not until I get my exhaust. That is my next purchase, I think.
