question on C&L intake and tune install

Apologize in advance for what might seem a silly question but....I just recieved my C&L intake and tune from Alternative Auto. My '05 V6 has been sitting in my garage inbelow freeziing temperatures for about a week now. The thought occurred to me that maybe it might be better (for whateverreason) totake the car out for a spin and warm up the electronics a bitbeforeinstalling the C&L and re-flashing (especially) the computer. Probably doesn'tmatter one way or the other but thought I wouldask anyway.

You should be fine... but... you might want to take her for a spin just to make sure the battery is completely charged... Last thing you want is to have the battery die while you are in the middle of flashing the car...

and congrats ont the c&l/x-cal2... keep us posted!
