Yes but you have to get the size right. I can make you a sig and send you a link that you can copy if you want.

Also, if you use Mozilla, when you right click on the pic it will be listed as "Copy Image Location", in IE, you have to click on properties and then copy the url so it adds and extra step.

Officially in SATX for a week straight now. Not a big fan of my commute, but at least it's not gridlocked!

One thing I've noticed is that going westbound on 90 just W of I-10 my radar detector goes apeshit on ka band. I'm thinking it's some traffic flow speed sensor or something. Anybody else driven over there noticed that?

if you look at the first bridge before I-37 you can see it on the east bound side under the overpass (I think its that overpass but I will check this morning).

I saw them installing this wierd looking "instrument" and after some research it turned out to be a speed sensor.

I've gone a few ways so far, mostly trying to find a faster way to get to 90. Culebra to 410 to 151 seems to be pretty good if I stay on the 151 access road for a few lights.

This morning I went 410 to 10 and there was a 5 or 6 car accident just past Babcock which screwed me for like 30 minutes on the junction from 16 to 410.

oh damn, I thought you meant from the east side (where I am)...sorry been a crazy week.

FYI for everyone else if you are heading east on I-10 from downtown watch out for the I-37 overpass...if you go too fast the officer will be waiting for you at Houston Street.

It is the same. I haven't seen a used one for sale on the forums for cheap enough to make it worth buying considering you need a tune as well and MM pretty much includes that.

I was going to offer the guy $100 see if he bites ...but your probably right it will end up being a new one that includes the $99 custom tune.

Maybe so but MM is not the only one who can tune using it. There are also a few nice tweeks you can do yourself with it such as turning on the fans early.

He's not the only guy but he has made it where it's more expensive to go any other route.
