Haha it has not blown up. Although for some reason it seems my ECU took a crap which seems very uncommon for the type of ECU that it uses. So I've ordered another one but am currently trying to narrow down whether the most recent HP tuners update had something to do with it or just natural causes I guess. Here's a photo of it with friends turbo srt8 jeeps last weekend.IMG_2402.JPG

Great shot.

Are you doing all the tuning yourself?
Tuning is my biggest concern and I have been pondering HP Tuners but, computers and I don't really get along that well.

No, I currently have someone who tunes cars locally do it. He previously worked for a speed shop in my area but no longer does. He pretty much contracts himself out now which sucks for me because it's always a waiting game it seems. I've decided that after it's complete for now when I do the trans swap as well as the cam I will no longer be using anyone that doesn't have their own dyno etc or a shop/business.

Any updates?

Is he close by?
My guy is 3 hours away now after our move to the coast. Thankfully he has a dyno and full shop. I just wish he was closer.
