I must be behind on my Fastbird stalking.
I thought it lived before you went away...

It did, but then it went down due to the XFI being dunked. Then I swapped radiators. Now its back to working on the crappy cold start characteristics.

Guess my file didn't help much. ha-ha. At least it's back up and running. You on 1.33 or 2.0 now?
Fastbird

Still 1.34 and your file was a big help actually.

I'm trying to get it driveable before work this morning. Figure it's a 20 mile round trip, so 10 one way. It's not too hot out so I can probably get a bead on the cooling temps status. More to come......

Decided not to drive to work with it. Gonna start with short trips tomorrow. But....

There's your proof y'all knuckleheads. I don't know about cold start yet, but not warmed up idle is MUCH improved. Added a couple points to the idle fueling and found that the ATS Temp Correction table had NOTHING added anywhere. It was idling at like 600-700 and I went to 50% and the idle came right up. So at this point I figured out two things: one, the cold start issues are lack of fuel based and two, all I gotta do is keep working towards a nice balance of extra fuel between the Air Temp and Coolant Temp Correction tables. More to come tomorrow, and it'll be driving tomorrow too if its not raining.

3 seconds into the vid it stops for me and says "theres a problem" LOL!

I am glad to know it is running Sean. Just keep working on her man, and I know it will get dialed in where it should be. Maybe it was just the far off vid with the less than high pixel video, but the purple car, even for sitting outside looked still pretty good man. You just don't see many clean LTX ram air Trans Ams. And yours is still hot looking IMO. I know the paint is not perfect, and close up it has its flaws (mine does also), but it still looks good at least from the distance.

Weird....plays fine from my phone via YouTube.

It's not bad looking on camera or video, but if you get within 10 feet with a set of eyes its horrible imo. I really desperately want to have it painted next time I run into a couple grand.
