    I'm blessed to have made out pretty good. Never lost electricity even once. I was pretty worried last night as the water inched its way up my driveway, but thankfully it only got to a little past the expansion joint in my driveway which is around 10ft from house.

    Many areas had it pretty bad and lost everything. Prayers for those that have been displaced. Its going to take a long time to get things back to normal.

    Street is flooded just past the sidewalk. Our street is currently doing well. Pending the Addicks reservoir funneling off water quickly enough.

    Good to hear! Been down the same road myself. Seems stock ECU with N/A flash is the best for use w/ UCON.

    I forget, do you have any cats? Shouldn't be getting p0420/430 catalyst efficiency below threshold with the S3 tune. Are you on S3?

    no cats.. S3 tune. Ive had the codes since removing the cats / installing the headers. If I plug the tailpipe, is it suppose to stall if i dont have a leak ? Cause its not stalling and i cant visibly see a leak.

    Scott adjusted the tune twice . He says im the only one with this issue :frusty:.. so we're thinking its an exhaust leak.

    Just got back from vacation yesterday.

    Los Angeles, CA -> San Francisco,CA (x2 days) -> Klamath Falls, OR -> Crater Lake National Park (x2 days) ->Klamath Falls, OR -> Mammoth Lakes, CA -> Los Angeles

    Somewhere around 2k driven. No CEL, 15.5-16.7 MPG (on highway, not in boost), power when needed to pass.

    Loving the S/C and UCON and surprisingly clocked the best MPG since I started tracking it.

    Looking forward to future S/C upgrades sometime next year. Wife has put a hold on all Tacoma purchases for the rest of the year.

    Not true, I have had recurring 0420 an 0430's myself. He did tweak the tune about 10 days ago and I got a cel shortly after. He was going out of town so I reset the cel an haven't had one since in about 150 miles of driving. I have headers and stock y.

    Scott seems like a great dude though and super knowledgeable so I have faith in him and his abilities.
