I am so there Phil. Viva Las Vegas!!!

Damn straight.
Its 60°F here tonight and I'm freezing!
Niki is in Vegas tonight. I think she's going to see "Thunder from Down Under" with a bunch of her Maryland friends that are visiting Vegas.

Very nice town if you have gills.

Canada is nice, in the summer but in Vancouver it just rains (and it's cold). I think 70F on a winter day is much better than 34F, but to each his own.

Rain is what makes the world look good

Plus our winters are mild and our summers are hot so it is all good. Not like Toronto who has -30 Degrees winters..... The lowest it got here this year was -1 Degree with minimal snow fall.

Living in Vancouver you just get used to the rain but who doesn't love the sun? I was just saying that Sun > Rain > Snow. But I take it you won't be visiting us up here anytime soon?

Who will have a product that is "consumer ready" first? Hymee or Cobb? Either case and in both cases we all win.

That's only question #1 as far as I am concerned...the next bigger and more important question...

Which one is going to be THE choice for FI applications...

THAT's the million dollar question...

Well, the presumption would be that all of the solutions, in order to be viable at all, would have to give full programming capability to the tuner.
That would make the only distinctions price and user-friendliness.
The above being true, they would all be capable of providing correct management for FI.

Now, I am willing to bet that, at best, only one will provide complete functional control of the PCM.
Which one that is remains to be seen.

As Obiwan once said, "He will learn patience."

Everything that happens now, is happening now.
What happened to then?
We passed then.
When?
Just now. We're at now, now.
Go back to then!
When?
Now.
Now?
Now!
I can't.
Why?
We missed it.
When?
Just now.
When will then be now?
Soon.
How soon?

Does anyone know if the Acces Port will be compatible with JDM Right-hand drive 6 MT vehicles? Or is it specific for US vehicles only.
