Make sure if it doesn't automatically detect DFCO to program it to recognize it (I had this issue!). A quick google search will help you, or the online manual... I had another user (Bestclimb) explain it to me awhile back. Makes a huge difference.

Are you planning on any mods, or just going for driving style alone?
Aero mods are in the back of my mind, nothing too radical. I have access to urethane sheeting (flexible, about 1/4" thick) so front air dam out of that and belly pan with smooth wheel covers. She who must be appeased is interested in HHO generation, I need to find out more about that. I also need to find out if side skirts help at all, with the urethane I have adding those would be easy, but need to look into the benefits.

Great, now I have to start reading about DFCO, as if I don't have enough to learn already!

Like I said I feel I'm off to a pretty good start, so I have time to learn and do what I want right the first time.
