Correct its a 10amp fuse. Located in the passenger footwell on the right. I blew one in my garage and had to pull it out of my truck...lol... so carry some or you might be stranded for a while. I dont know which fuse it is but there are only so many 10 amp fuses in there. Oh yeah and I always keep my tuner in my center console. Never know when I'll have to use it or something happen.

Mine is in my trunk in an old CD player case. I'm on the road a lot, am often anywhere from 400 to 1000 miles from home and I run an 89 tune. I've had 2 occasions where I was only able to get 87 octane.

Oh yeah the fuse idea is good. I carry several around with me after my SCT blew it once. Luckily I was at home and was able to borrow a fuse from another car. I carry spare fuses with me on my bike too. My bike's fuse box has a few spots to hold spare fuses and luckily it came with spares b/c I needed one once.

The Torque tune is good but I prefer the touchyness of the Race tune. Plus the Race tune, I swear, makes my car a little louder. All the way from idle to redline. I don't know exactly why but I'm sure of it. But honestly I don't feel any more torque from the torque tune than I do with the Race. The Race tune to me feels like it has it all. A lot of torque down low plus a strong pull up high.

I keep mine in the trunk all of the time. I had one stolen from my storage area and had to have the dealer to reflash it and the buy a new one for the custom tune. Very expensive.
