What did everyone get for Christmas?

I look forward to this post each year. I will start:
I made out like a bandit. I got a new oil pan, billet fuel pump block off plate, and ARP oil pan studs. The big gift was from my wife and two sons: A Megasquirt-II ECU Kit w/PCB3.0!
Now after some soldering I will be able to take total fuel control and make adjustments with out burning chips.
I am very happy. I hope everyone else had a good Christmas.

I have a 305 S-D chip if you want to trade. EDIT: Actually it makes most sense to keep your 350 chip with the 350 injectors. I know on the MAF cars the only difference between a 305 and 350 chip was the injector constant, so you'd want to keep the chip with the injectors, even if its on a different size engine (unless of course the motor requires more fuel). I believe the S-D cars are the same way but not 100% positive because I remember messing with a Holden bin one time that was different. Based the injector constant off of cylinder volume or something..

I got a Traxxas Stampede RC truck and a silver necklace from the g/f and a Craftsman toolchest, new jack and stands, and a 3-gallon air compressor because my dad didn't realize the size I need I'll be returning that one to go buy a 27/33 gallon (haven't decided on model yet). Then I got a bunch of small things.

Oh, and the Bears winning and the Vikings losing made my Christmas perfect.

Now today instead of playing with all my gifts, I get to swap rears in my cars *sigh*
