Default Ahhhhh, TT is back on the road- 62* today in Milwaukee

Car has been sitting for about 4 months. About a month ago I pulled the battery and sat it inside to charge and see if it was toast from being in the bitter cold for so long- so many times I planned to just run it around for half a day, but never happened.

Well today, I put the battery back in (Die Hard International). Hooked it up, half a crank later she fired RIGHT up. No stuttering, no issues, no nothing. It was awesome. Didn't even put stabilizer in the fuel tank.

Ran it around in non-chip mode for about 30 minutes. Went got a half a tank of fresh 93 octane, filled up the tires (were around 25psi on my 19's- filled to 32psi- any other recommendations?), and get her the finest gas station car wash they offered (no brushed of course).

Took her around for another hour, and then popped it into chipped mode. Just like in non-chip mode, she ran perfectly. I was very impressed- first time the car ever sat for so long.

Now my list of items to get accomplished this month- new rear seat delete (non-rushed version ), new sub box (cleaner version), CPT control arms, new engine mounts, new wheel liner for driver side, new under belly guard, and a general clean up. Really looking forward to all this!
