Lol... Went to euro sunday, they had a dyno there, so I said why the hell not... Might as well get a base line.
Anyways, put down 90whp, couldn't get a tach signal so no torque reading. Brandon also ran his PD and made 5hp more than mine. I'm sure the 5hp over mine came from the drive train loss through my automatic.

Was from about 1500rpms to 4300rpms. Dunno, not too bad for a hot day, high elevation, and no fan on the dyno? lol

Nice! You'll love turning the key and seeing the temp gauge move right away!
If you plug it in all night and get a check engine light, then all you have to do is get yourself an outdoor timer. From the little research I did, there are two temp sensors, and the light will come on sometimes because it sees enough of a difference between the two sensors. I set my timer to kick on about 3 hours before I need to start the car and it works out pretty good.
Enjoy!

i just tested it by pluging it in for 30 mins, and the gauge was already half way up.
No check engine lights either.
