    I'll put his TB on this weekend and drive it like that for a week. That may tell me everything, or nothing. :cryin:

    But I agree that it's worth doing.

    Oh, but when the car is running correctly now, it runs AWESOME.

    And still has some more in it with a retune, I bet.

    If you drive it for a week and you don't get the lag......buy a TB.

    PS: Yes more there after retune, with the changes its way off........again.

    I probably will... though this year I've gone MONTHS with no symptoms, then it will crop back up. One week won't tell me anything, really. Unless it DOES do it with the new TB... then that tells me it's not the TB.
