This evening I reinstalled the ECU and the car started immediately and idled
smoothly.  I went for a drive and puttered around for a few miles to let the
car get up to temperature before "testing". Outside temp was 75*F.

Oh Momma!  The car IS most definitely faster.  I tried to hold off a little
bit as I don't want to blow a hose prior to the Samco GP arrival.  But I did
see (briefly) ALL LED's light up on my VBM.  That was 25psi.  The Saab 9-3
that had been right next to me was waaaaay back there.  Kinda fun to now see
the 16+ psi (that I used to see only at WOT) with only a medium pressure
applied to the go-pedal.  This mod is definitely HUGE bang for the buck.
One side-effect I noticed was the engine oil and coolant temps rose above
norm faster than I had seen in stock form.  No funny "goose" noises to
report or others for that matter.  I'll take it for a longer drive over the
weekend :-)
