Burned my first PROMS last night!

Well, with the help of a friend or two I finally got everything I needed and got my burner and tunercat working. I'm so excited. I turned a few things off, changed my inj const to 24#, changed base timing setting, rev limiter and a few other things. I burned it and then read it back to the PC to see that the data was on the chip. I guess the truth will come out tonight when I go home and put it in the car and see if/how it runs. I can't wait to start playing with this thing! YOU GUYS ARE RIGHT!!! Chip tuning is the only way to go and its not that difficult



*Thanks to all you guys that have helped me and answered questions of mine in the past. I'll take all the help I can get, and I'm sure I'll be posting in here more in the near future
