Mike Norris said mine was sent out Friday but he didn't have A chance to send me the tracking number, since Monday is a holiday he said I should have it by Wednesday.
I have to take mine in and get the air box replaced, when they changed my oil two weeks ago they noticed the air box had a piece broken on it. They ordered me a new one and when it came in it was also broken. So I am waiting for another one now. I will install my PTB after that gets fixed.

Throttle body installed last night along with Air scoop ( already had CAI intake ) and washer relocation kit. Haven't had time to do some good WOT from a stop yet. I'll install my Gtech-Pro and see what has changed on my 60' times. So far just driving home last night and taking things easy with a Holiday weekend, things feel good, not drastic but worth the investment. While I was swapping out parts I also cleaned the little downtube in the front of the intake right behind the T/B. It contained a fair amount of residue, only 3800 miles on my car. Glad I installed an RX catch can recently.

Does anyone know of any Chassis Dynos in the upper East Tennessee area, Tri-Cities is preferred. I want to get a baseline and after the PTB install on my car.

You said ALL SouthwestSpeed has shipped but I didn't get a tracking number and Ivan just told me that if I didn't get a tracking number then it didn't make it last week...I ordered on 8/8 (order 276) and was hoping for a surprise package tomorrow since others reported not getting tracking numbers but now I am unsure once again...also, I just ordered a VR Catch Can through Southwest Speed too..can't wait to get both items

Is that representative of how many PTB's that have been sold? If so, wow. I was in the initial batch, so they had my money for a couple of months (which wasn't a problem).

Hang in there, it's worth the wait.

Sitting here waiting for the UPS truck, I have already taken the old one off. A flat blade screwdriver and a 10mm socket. While I was at it I ran a white towel around inside the intake, it came out dry no oil on it at all.
I did a couple 0-60mph and a fuel mileage run earlier. After I get it installed I will drive it around for a day then following the same route recheck both for an after comparison.
