But not the way they make it now.
The way it used to be in the 1980's when it was still crispy on the outside because they fried it.
All MCD's have 2 Big macs for $3.50, i bought 8 these past two days!!! Those things are delicious!! and by the way i dont know if u guys noticed but the double cheeseburgers dont exist anymore,

Double Cheeseburger - Two meat patties and two slices of cheese 99 cents

is now (because MCDees is getting stingier! V

McDouble - Two meat patties and one slice of cheese 99 cents

You can still ask for a double cheeseburger but it will cost u more now.

I want to get the AP and have an 05 AT 4 port. Right now its NA but I will be going FI, does the AP come with maps for both NA and FI? By the way I will also be doing the dyno day. Also does the AP have something to get rid of the rev limiter and speed governer?

you might want to:

1. Read the MM AP thread, it answers your questions
2. Email or PM MM, after you read the thread
3. Order the AP now if you want it in time for the dyno

The rev limit can be moved to as high as 10,000 RPM.
There is no speed governor on North American models, other than that imposed by the laws of physics.

Don't know if this has been covered, but I didn't want to read 230+ post to find out.

I have the AP installed. It was tuned by Jeff at the Dyno day last year.
I've upgraded the AP to the latest firmware, but I still have the custom tune installed.

Since Jeff is going to take a look at our maps again;
1) Should I install/run the new base map he has on his site to get base #'s?
2) Should I do some logging w/ the AP and have that info available Friday?

Just log your current calibration.

Thanks.

@Jedi -
Maybe you should add that to the first post.
I'm sure some guys are already planning on that, but just as a reminder to the AP guys.

I figure I'll log somewhere on the 5 on my way down. I'm sure I'll find a nice flat piece of ground to set the cruise control and keep the RPM's in the right range.

I have the old map that Jeff loaded on my car at the NeptuneSpeed dyno day but that thing was super rich.
I'm starting over with the new process. Wish me luck!

on second thought: I'm not fixing your car.
Although this park across the street is awfully tranquil.

Funny thing...shes doing her dissertation on impulsivity and aggression...

So she literally selectively breeds vicious hamsters and ***** hamsters and stages gladiator style battles...

And then decapitates them, and slices out the brain chunks to analyze...

And thats just the school thing...

Dont even get me started on the snake, and having to recently chase down its food (rat) after the bastard escaped its cage...or any of the other stories...

I plan on attending for a dyno only, maybe some $300/hour hookers.
