Now now push the power button once more to reboot.
    got it. it seems like it did an update when it rebooted to. the keyboard is different and everything. does seem more responsive.

    also is this going to be able to tell me if I am to lean and KR stuff etc?

    watching youtube videos people are showing rpm and speed and acceleration and ****. I am no seeing any air/fuel or "knock" etc...

    I dont need RPM and speedo or volts.

    I am searching for one local to the US, but not having any luck

    KR yes if it's the torque app. Lean...no that's what a wideband is for.

    ok... Here is what I have done in the last week.

    exaust leak fixed. new exaust manifold to downpipe gasket. BTW, they have really updated this. They are a much better design.

    last night I replaced the water pump and both coolant elbows with the dorman 47065HP ones (not plastic). I also cleaned up and fixed some other potential leaks there were up by the heater hoses.

    Bad news is I did not fix all the leaks. The good news is I now know where the last leak is and it will be easy to fix. (heater core hose from the water pump area). new hose and new clamp and it will be all set. NO OTHER LEAKS! and in total I am into it 48 bucks!

    NOW unfortunately my kenwood dvd player wants a code drove to work listening to the after market exaust (which isnt terrible).

    I am getting ever so much closer to headers and a tune! I get a VA paycheck this week I will be watching the classifieds for a good used set.

    I am going to replace all the idler and tensioner pulleys in the next week or two (I am all about preventative maint). I will also be doing a trans fluid/filter change and adding some lucas.

    well still no exaust leak. Coolant leaks are all fixed. system I think is finally properly burped. found the code for the kenwood in dash dvd player.

    Next step is to fix the ghetto ass job done on the piller pod (3 piller pod, but no the full replacement) and it looks like crap. on gauge that works is the volt gauge. the boost gauge vacuums but doesnt boost (dont worry I am not going WOT. just gently boosting). The oil pressure gauge is just dead, and none of them light up. So gonna get a replacement pillar pod. and get them working right and wired into the lights.

    I am watching out for headers and then will get a tune, and will be ready to spin this 3.4 pulley at WOT and maybe get some track times!
