Yesterday, sent the order to GDE for an hot tune exchange....veery excited about getting it and trying it out. Also this is my wife's car (mainly) and I've told her nothing about the tune. I will install it Friday after she leaves for Idaho to see the gandkid so it'll be interesting to see how long it takes here to say something.

It will also be interesting to see how long the stock TC lasts with her driving. Guess I better order a Euro TC to have on hand.

Just make sure you let her know......I had the Hot tune and I still have the stock TC.........I never felt the shudder before the tune...........It is there big time now.......I have a TC being built for me and will be installing along with some new Spicer lifetime u-joints..........HJ

My wife says she doesn't notice any difference with the hot tune with the exception that mileage went from 24.9 to 27.5 mpg with the first tank of fuel after the tune. She rarely if ever gets into a WOT situation where this tune comes alive.

Well, if the TC does devolop shudder, I'll just have to let her know that this is a documanted problem and I know what to do about it. Might even get an at-a-boy for being on top off the situation.

She does tend to Zip around with the Libby....she really likes it and calls it her favorite car ever.....so she might recognize that it has a bit more zest.

It is gonna shudder like hell, and it don't take much to do it. You had better throw in 1 or 2 tubes of Dr. Tranny Instant shudder eliminator for the time being, until you get the new TC.
