I've ran the strange singles and the tokico blues. To me the blues were more streetable (less body roll without the jiggliness), but the strange took a fairly consistent .1 off my 60' without even knowing how to use them.

Probably because of weight transfer. 90/10 drag shocks do the same but SUCK steet driving.
Yes those are the ones. I haven't played with the settings much yet. I set them right in the middle and drove it. Had good street characteristics and aren't very noisy in the coilovers (there is a slight clunk to them with harsh bumps).
Well, I decided the struts could wait a little longer when I got a 10% off code from DIY auto tune...
So, looks like I got some soldering projects coming up...

I initially was going to go with that too. I'm still undecided on which direction I want to go. It would be fun to be able to tune it myself.Well, I decided the struts could wait a little longer when I got a 10% off code from DIY auto tune...

Well the good news is it tunes itself for the most part. I like that because it reduces the possibility of error on my part.
For a few reasons:
1) I've wanted one for years.
2) It's pretty well published that I am flaky and indecisive. This allows me to change the setup and tune it myself without having to drag it to a dyno and paying someone each time I switch it up.
3) No more MAF
4) Boost eventually
I used to be an electronics tech when I was offshore, so this kind of thing interests me. I want to do a distributor-less ignition system with LS coils and a few other oddities you don't usually see on a fox. hoping it keeps me entertained for a while as the mods are cheap. Need to spend money on the house for a bit, hahah
OOhh me, me....
Oddities, DIS, Fox body,.....did that.
In case I haven't advised you a to what else you need:
Big assed magnifying glass on stand ( for when alot of junk gets soldered on board.
Small point, 15watt soldering iron.
The right solder.
Solder wick.
Noted. Do you still have the stim?OOhh me, me....

Why yes, as a matter of fact I do. Anndd,... I have the Jim Stim you can test injector banks, ignition, and a butt load of other junk.
Why,...you need one?

Tried doing the edis almost 10 years ago. Had trouble finding a plug and play solution at the time. I tried modifying an explorer crank trigger but quickly lost motivation and shelved the idea.

@hoopty5.0 i had to read up on that to find out what a stim was, pretty neat! I'd like to learn more about it when you get it!
BTW, it only tunes itself if you upgrade the tuning software from free to 50 bucks for the full version of Tunerstudio.

Nice, I've been thinking I want to get something like that (MS/PIMP/etc) when I install my TFS stuff. I figure for the cost of a new MAF and tune I can delete the MAF and tune it myself for a long time. I used to have a 2008 ZX-10R with the Dynojet PC V hooked up with auto tune and it did a fantastic job, but I don't think I'll want to screw with building it myself when I get mine.
I wish I could have just bought an assembled one, but I would have felt like I was cheating myself. And the beautiful thing about MS is that people share their tunes, so you can download one that someone has from a similar setup and tweak it from there. I have a stock tune that I'm going to work from.
I really liked the auto tuning feature once we got it lined out a little bit. Well worth the upgrade fee in my opinion.
