Just saying hello again after a long absence

[ClodMaxx]

i heard audi tiptronics will upshift from first to second automatically from a stop...but then let you control from then on. that would be irritating. what's the point, then? i will say it's probably the smoothest AT i've ever driven, and the manual mode is better than others (volvo's, for example).

i'll keep you posted on how the z reacts to the spacer. the negative on the battery needs to be disconnected for at least a half hour to restart the ecu, and from there it adjusts to the increased air. same thing with the CAI, which is why i'm installing both at the same time. i'm not sure about how the powerband moves, or where though. i know i'll lose torque but gain top end speed with the test/race pipes, not to mention the increase in noise. she's already pretty loud!
