    I've been on here for a little while, but I just realized I've never introduced myself. I drive an ivory white '03 GTP with just under 85k miles; it came completely stock, and I've recently added 18" wheels, intake, ZZP MPS, 180* tstat, and 2.5" catback w/Magnaflow mufflers. Thanks for the help so far, guys. Money is kinda tight, so I'm gonna take it nice and slow for now. Glad to meet fellow enthusiasts!

    That makes you the first person I've met here that lives within 500 miles from me. haha. I hang out with friends in Clinton on the weekends, they're in walking distance from where the auto show was a couple weeks ago. If you feel like mentoring someone new to tuning, I could really use some insight. If you wanna reach me in the daytime, here's my cell: 618-593-7574. Good to meet ya!

    Well, I don't have the support mods...when I said I didn't have much knock, I meant the PCM was pulling timing, hence the lousy mileage. I could reset the mpg gauge on 15 headed down towards SLC and still only get 25-26mpg, vs 34-35mpg avg on the 3.8 pulley. That's why I was gonna ask if you could help me tune it, I have a completely stock PCM right now...
