**HALTECH Review-Stock Block 12 PSI w/ Meth**
I'm asking a dumb question and not searching, but I assume the haltech is wired in like a piggyback although its working alone in controlling the motor? Or is the valve timing still on the OEM?

wow you run 100% meth, must be very corrosive. I run 50% meth/50%water and the metal lid on the resevor is all corroted.

Overall, it makes the car soo much more enjoyable to drive, and that in itself makes it worth every penny.
On the other hand, 12 PSI on a stock block!!!
Anyways, congrats on the Haltech and the great numbers.

Only issue that the Haltech has (that I have found) is that it will throw a P0011 and P0021 code after about 100 miles. These are intake valve codes that the ECU is throwing since it is not seeing the intake valve values it is expecting to see.
As I understand it, Haltech is working on this.

It's been fun working with your Tyler...enjoy!

Same here man. BTW- I downloaded the driver and everything is running good.
Now, lets just cross our fingers the rods hold up for the summer
