Exclamation Is there such thing as BAD Lightning?

Hey all, Sal here. Just got back from Connecticut. I was supposed to dyno tune a few trucks up there. I got there and met up with all the owners, and started setting up. They had a bad storm come in yesterday evening. The shop guys were sitting just outside the bay door watching the rain and lightning when a bolt nailed the pole across the street. It hit so hard that it blew one of the guys backwards on his chair, and the chair nailed the drivers door on the 95 Lightning behind it. As if that wasn't so bad, it turned out that it also wiped out the dyno electronics So I didn't get to do any tuning. One of the truck I was going to do was an 00, and the guy was really disapointed that we couldn't dyno tune the truck. I said "just try my regular 00 chip, you'll be surprised". He was kinda skeptic, but agreed to try it. I said "we'll put it in, and you go drive it around for a while and see if you like it, I guarantee it'll put a smile on your face " So he did, and he sure came back with a smile HeHe. So is there any such thing as BAD lightning? Oh, and you guys can stop laughing at the irony now

Sal, I want to personally thank you for everything you are doing to help us Bolt owners.
I purchased a SuperChip BUT your advice on the pulley has saved us alot of heart ache.

I sincerely hope your business continues to expand. I am wondering if someone came to your shop PSP, would you be able , willing to tweak a non PSP chiped auto ?

I know my Lightning has a bad #ss air filter from you Sal. Looks great and installed easy. Well worth the wait, thanks.

Cool

Not such a thing. Just got your temp chip, and it is great. Lowered my 1/8th mile times by almost 2 tenths. Thanks.
