we tried tuning it, seems to be alright as of now but were skeptical about the extra fuel pump. we took it around the block again and reved it up higher, feels DAMN good. only at 1/4-1/2 throttle it's putting me back in the seat haha. damn i cant want to feel full throttle. were gena call the company up tomorrow to see what they have to say about the fuel pump.
