Denny, all you did was okay up to the point of re-sizing. You don't need photoshop, most programs will let you resize...........and for the purposes of posting on this site, I found that 8x10 inches works out okay. You should be able to select inches or pixels at least on whatever program you use when attempting to resize. Some people put out absolutely huge ones, but it's not really needed.

For instance, this pic is roughly 8 x 10 inches(or 580 x 780 pixels).
It's a pic of an ex-girlfriends cat and seems to display okay for this site............even if embedded into the thread where you don't have to click on it.

Denny, Mazurfer is right an editing software will do, also another thing it may prompt you on is resolution ,,, most screen are set at 72 or 96dpi, 72 is fine for web based images... most the image i post are around 100o x 800 pixels... 800 x 600 is good too....most peoples screens are set at 1024x768...

Orlando to West Palm Florida is about two hours drive.
I was a special case,(right time and place) Pettit was able to complete mine in two days. Do not count on the two day installation to happen.

Pettit Racing has a flash for the stock ECU, or the Interceptor-X

I have over 15K on mine as of today, I drive mine to work daily.
Only time the car ever failed was when I changed the Ignition from the stock hardware (as installed by Pettit) one of the aftermarket coils I had installed, died on my way home from work the next day. I replaced the stock system as Pettit had configured it, everything was happy again.

Sweet forced induction package. I feel it is a very mild tune, but they knew when they set it up that I drive mine daily.
A blower just feels like it is a larger engine, not at all like with a turbo where the boost "comes on".

PS: Jeff? Nomex got your tongue?

Didn't want to overload him with "resolution" yet, let's get him posting pics with the approx right size first............then we can move on to resolution. Anyway.......I always take my shots at the highest resolution possible, then I will scale back from there depending on what I am going to use them for.......web, etc. but I always retain the original in the highest resolution possible.
