I just installed that exact setup 2 days ago on my pony. It's wonderful! I had to re-learn how to drive it a little bit. Just a fair warning to avoid what I went through: get as far down to E as possible if you don't already have 93-octane in your tank. Causes some timing issues. Nothing serious, just an irritating noise between 3-4k rpms. And have fun...I know I am!

With the new tune, the car acts completely different. Main thing you'll notice is that your throttle is 100 times more responsive. Makes for some interesting take-offs from lights/stop signs your first few tries
