    If you ever have a chance to tail your car with someone else driving, it's fun to hear one of the best engine notes ever coming out of your tailpipes.

    Finally got my car back today after another trans, complete new wiring harness, new EGT sensors, and new ECU.

    $100 out of my pocket. God bless fidelity platinum.
    Big job! Incorrect gear ratio? What was the cause of the trans issue?

    Too much torque I presume. It just failed all at once after a hard launch.

    Back to the stock tune for awhile... the ECU I bought from another member here was bad after I had it coded, so got a brand new one. Wiring harness had brittle, failing insulation causing irregular signals... Oh, and the EGTs were bad too.

    Happy to have a new brain and nervous system in the old sled. After adaptation it's running better than it ever has.
