    Still having problems!

    Did you put silicon grease between the module and the distributer when you installed it? The silicon grease creates a heat barrier to protect the mudule against high heat. Just a thought

    17" wheels, 45, or 40 profile, what will keep the speedo accurate?

    A 275 40 17 and a 245 45 17 are very close in height (275 being a bit taller). 45 series would keep the speedo more accurate.

    Bad H-Pipe?

    One easy way to check for clogged cats is like this. With engine at operating temp (or close to it) try to feel if there is a major temperature change before and after the cats. If its super hot before the cats and cooler after, then you have clogged cats. Worth a try
