Thank you everyone for your concern and well-wishes!! I greatly appreciate it!!

Yeah, it was a tough go there for a while.. I was in the hospital for over a month - July 7th through August 14th... died on the operating table... doctors told me if I had waited another hour or two before going to the ER, that I wouldn't be here at all... Here's more info if interested to read: http://www.gofundme.com/d5nkho

so yeah, it has been a battle.. and am still recovering, but at least I am home and things are going well now...

So yes, I am back in the saddle and going at it!!! I got caught up on the 800 emails (yes, 800, heh) I had piled up while I was in the hospital, and am actively doing new tune requests, orders, etc etc...

So please feel free to hit me up!!

Hey Lew. Welcome back buddy - you had us worried for a while there!

BTW: I think I need a new tune, since I've done some "ram air" mods to my air box and my idle LTFTs are now at 19% and 20% and cruise is ~13%, whereas you had the tune perfected before (~2-4%). I know you must be under pressure now, so I'm going to do a data log w/ the Intune soon and send it to you soon. I'll email you in due course.
Glad you're back man.

Thanks man!

wow, 20%.. that's almost at GM's max threshold... that's at idle??? check your air intake, make sure everything is completely together, and that all clamps/bolts from air filter to throttle body are TIGHT so no air leaks anywhere...

Okay. Will do Lew.
Yep, that's measured on my Dashlogic. It reads solidly at 19% on one bank and 20% on the other at idle. Once I'm cruising it drops down to 11-13% and when I take my foot off the pedal it goes right back to 19/20. I did bust one of the hose clamps on my Halltech intake when I was screwing it back together. They seem to be very delicate. I will check everything over and let you know what I find.

Just to update on the above: I checked all the clamps, etc. on the intake and I couldn't find any leaks. I hooked up the Intune and started a datalog. The LTFTs were at 19% for both banks at idle. At cruise they went down to 10%.
Lew, I'm going to send you an email with the log file soon.

Lew take "good care" of yourself. I wish you & family all the best!

Best Regards,
Bill

PS: Down the road I "may" have a 650 hp supercharged Z06 which may need your attention, but only after a few attempts at setting the stock record. Should be able to go 10.0 "legal" from the factory with this car.
