Front BMR front tubular control arms .BBK strut tower brace. Mishimoto rad and fans, relocated the battery to the rear. Also just installed a MS2 Ecu, Taking it to get tuned on Sept 12th.

I hear you. I am taking it to a Hot rod shop in Masontown, PA, They deal and install them there and have a dyno.

What wbO2 did they have you get? Have you talked to them about expectations? Dont leave with the car if it idles at 1k rpm.
Are they giving you a driving tune or just a wot/racing tune? These are things you want to have out in the open before they start or you wont be happy with the end result.

Last question, what are they charging you?

I got a free Innovate Motorsports 3918 MTX-L Plus Wide band when I ordered the system from summit racing and a 10%off coupon .
Street driving tune, I want the idle good and will not take the car if not.
Tune will cost Between $600-800.

Also I have had serious issues with the MTXL failing, most people get an error about the sensor getting over heated.

I highly suggest this unit. https://www.14point7.com/products/spartan-lambda-controller-2
very accurate and easy to calibrate in the MS system.
