Congrats, get a hold of me if you have any questions about the stage 2 pcm tune by Whipple. I had the 8.2 mag which was 380hp stock and gained around 85hp off the tune. Went from 68mph to 78mph.

Does the Stage 2 tune require premium gas? Any other issues / concerns with the tune?
It would have to wait until next year when the 1 year warranty expires.

Just need to get it out of the crate and into the boat!
And a tolerably cold day to test run ;-)

Yes it requires atleast 91 octane. And good idea to wait on the warranty.

Did the picture turn out ok?
I'm playing with links direct to google photos - I have a strong dislike for photobucket. . .
Its sized for 800 pixels - looks good on my laptop, but its a 3200 x 1800 display - so the pic may be a little large for some?
