THanks for the update. I have the extended warranty and have been hesitant to make any changes beyong the stage 1 the dealer installed but, I feel the need for some more low end grunt so I may risk it. Does the low end torque feel better?

Ironman I too have the extended warranty but not too worried as they'd have to show the change in timing caused a problem or to even find that it's installed. And it's an easy enough swap if it's necessary. I am finding that high temps (>95) and 6th gear roll-ons will cause some light pinging. I may leave it as is, or set the wheel back to +3 and see what happens - maybe chalk it up to the S1 flash adding some advance since the opinions vary from "no way" to "I heard +3" or what ever. The lacking 1500-2500 is my chief peeve and while the wheel didn't fix it, it certainly helped. Te engine does pull better through 3rd but it still doesn't like it much below 2k 4th+ and prefers above 2500 generally. Still, a definite improvement. And unplug the O2's...

Thanks for the input, I think I'll try it, any increase on low end torque would be appreciated. I don't generally lug the engine and try to stay above 2K especially in overdrive.
