Sounds like you have heck of a car there.

Try using the image shack link on the forum page. You should be able to post picture using that. Congrats on a beautiful car.

Nice choice of cars and especially the color. If you ever decide to get rid of the SVO, let me know.

i have a question, im sure the cobra is tuned for 93 octane, will i need to re-tune it when the car gets back to san diego for 91? or will the computer adjust?

ok, would you reccoment getting a tuner? like sct livewire? what handheld would you go with?

and would it be possible to pull the current tune off and put it on the tuner for when the car goes back to texas where there is 93?

SCT XCal3 would be a good one to get.

I don't think you can pull the current tune off and put it in a new tuner. I think they are store in the tuner itself. But I'm not positive on that. Someone more knowledgeable about this should chime in and give you a more accurate answer.

ok thanks, obviously i would have to see if sct was used for the current tune, i looked at the shops that worked on the car, and i want to say they both used sct... not possitive though.

and why the xcal3 as opposed to the livewire?

All you have to do is back off timing on your tuner around 2,4 degrees. With better fuel they usally tune higher timing
