He dropped it off, I got it registered. I drove it today on it's maiden voyage. I drove it approx 50 miles of mostly Stop and go in town driving. Started it 12 times during the day . On my way home I rounded a corner put in the clutch and the car died. Lucky I was only one block from home.I crawled under the dash looking for what I may have hit with my foot and saw nothing. I had visions of never hearing it run again I panicked, called AFbeefcake on the phone to ask him if he had any idea what it could be, I saw some unplugged wires etc. and I asked about them. Before I could say another word he says I am coming over. Not a small task as he lives 60 miles away. He arrived an hour and a 1/2 later crawled under the dash and discovered the stage 1.5 chip had fallen out of the ECU ( note here: If you did this upgrade HOT glue the board in place they can fall out) I was back on the road. This is the way we keep the cars on ther road and running . THANKS ARRON!

A friend of mine saw you driving it today and called me! He lives outside of Torrington.
