Most people would have freaked out and slamed harder on the brakes and crashed. Good thing you had time to slow down.

Would have been forced to slap a Toyota badge on it and blame the electronics!

:O Bummer she has to go. :( Good luck with everything though!

Earlier this week I built my speed density patched Tephra v5.10 ROM and today I made the switch. I've spent the majority of my day driving around logging and tweaking the SD tables and values. It's not even close to perfect yet, but its a whole lot closer now that it was at first. I'm still working on the part-throttle cruising aspect and once that is dialed-in I'll work my way up to boost and WOT conditions.

My initials impressions do show the car to have smoother light-throttle drivability below 2,000 RPM.

Thank you to Scheides for giving me pointers along the way!

After spending 6 days doing tons of logging and tuning...

SD ROM v27 is a success! I was just out making multiple clean WOT pulls and the car feels great! Time to order a Perrin air filter that will fit directly to my intake pipe.

Also, a special big thanks to Scheides for always being willing to look over logs and giving me pointers along the way since he's already converted 3 cars!

I got some new rubber last night. One of my tires picked up a big bolt very close to the sidewall so it was unrepairable. Being how AWD needs all matching tires I opted to just buy a complete new set. Luckily I found a store with a set of 245/40-17 Sumitomo HTR Z III's in stock that was willing to negotiate on price to bring pricing closer to TireRack's ($103 on TireRack, got these for $115 but didn't have to pay shipping).

Nice! I thought you were saying you wanted to try a new tire the other day?
