    yes its better to keep your tune in your car.
    these cars do run pig rich and if your nice to the car you get great gas mileage.

    my srt of example before my tune i was getting 28/15 now im getting 35/25 i pulled alot of fuel out of my 682's and now have good power and great gas milage.

    How do you blow the computer? Did the car get struck by lightning or something?

    i donno it was runnng grate, stop at a tim hortens and when i got back in it was messed up.
    they said it was cuz i had a high power coil and it sucked to much from the computer.
    so fair iv gotten a new coil, wires, plugs, computer and its still at the shop not running right :(

    Not saying you don't have a problem with your car...but it also sounds like you may have a problem with your shop too. There is no reason you should have had the CPU replaced...not too mention if they did replace the CPU it would need to be flashed to allow the keys to work. I suppose they could have all the stuff to do all that, but that whole blown computer thing sounds a bit fishy to me.

    yeah thats what i tho but its just running on cly 2 and 3 so to me that would be the coil? but its not cuz they put one on and it did nothing
    the computers covered under warranty so as long as it works in good
    its being done at the dealer so they have all that stuff
