can't recall brand name of either, but they are the ubiquitous models available on ebay from various sellers.
the exhaust drones horribly with top up at highway speed but is great fun with top down. thankfully i almost never drive with top up or on the highway!
well, i hate to say i'm complete with this car, but......
i'm complete with this car!
installed the softronic tuning today (after buying it in january of 2009 and keeping it unopened in box until yesterday).
wow. what an improvement!
no more CEL, no more high idle, no more stalling or popping or burping either.
just smooth, linear power all the way from the bottom to redline.
truly feels like a completely different automobile now. it feels FAST. it hugs the road and responds RIGHT NOW to input. LOVE IT!
