RE: Power Commander... D'OH!!!
The whole PC vs. Mac thing... it was only a joke! Lighten up! 
I used PCs for years before "the switch." I was running Windows ME (upgrade to XP was much better, i much say) for quite some time, and lost copious amounts of data due to 3 vital crashes.
The one thing i hate about electronic forums and e-mail - you lose all inflection and nonverbal communication, making everything that is said way too easy to misinterpret!
Back on topic... i'll post my HP and torque ratings as soon as i can!

let the dealer do the install and dyno like they said. I had them do exactly the same for me...the first "tune" was just a basic download...95% good, after a few hundred miles you can tell it needs a real 3-4 hour dyno tune...they wouldn't do it till after 1000 miles..it's in the shop now...

Well, i guess if it's any consolation, the dealer near me does a "free" dyno tuning with the intallation of a power commander...
i'm sure i'll figure something out!

So, I received my Power Commander via UPS today, and I eagerly opened it up to get on with the installation... it was then that i discovered that the software that comes with the module DOESN'T WORK WITH MACINTOSH COMPUTERS!!!!! So, i called their customer service hotline, and i was informed that they have no version that is compatible with a Mac, nor do they have any plans of making one! It doesn't even work with the virtual windows program.
Grumble grumble....
Well i guess the score is now:
Steve Jobs: 1,000,000
Bill Gates: 1
