$150 for the basic tune from Speed INC.

I'm going to have them do it to mine when I install some 4.10's plus I'll have them get rid of all the emission's crap.

Yes we have emmisions, but since mine's an OBDII as long as I'm not throwing any codes I'll pass.

disconnect the cluster, unhooking anywhere else will make the car confused

I wonder how big of a difference I would feel if I went from 2:73's to 3:73's.

you have 2.73's? wow. if you went to 3.73s youd notice a HUGE difference.

Arch, if i just go with all aftermarket gauges and an electronic speedo to my VSS everything will be cool right? i kinda wanted to make my own cluster or something. but that wont be for a while anyways. would that work tho? will my SES light go on with the cluster unplugged.

Yeah my rear end is very high, I'm tempted to try to top my car out once the scanmaster arrives. I know my engine and tires are up for a run but I'm not sure about the rest of the car.

ses light can't go on with the cluster unplugged, it's unplugged too, the pcm doesn't monitor the gauges it monitors the sensors going to the gauges, many aftermarket ones work with the factory vss but not all
