Tin, that was well said. But when you buy a system from NOS or anyone, it comes with a "starting point". That's all that Steve does, he gives you the best product he can and a safe starting point, if you want to be the best it's up to you to fine tune it to your combo.

I also talk with Justin at Pro Flow, he's very knowledgeable but just like Steve, they have to stay safe with their tune-ups so they don't hurt customers parts.

I've been doing this since my Marvin Miller system in 1979. I know enough to listen to people that know more than I do. However, I also know to find one tuner and stick with what they say, mixing tuneup advice can be costly.

what i write about nitrous is always true..
Didn't say that...look up the words "megalomanical" and "narcissism" for their meaning to understand better what I said. Your admitting to having "some ego" is a start.
