The earliest we can get into SS Auto is Early May. Thats why im asking about Turbo Hoses, but they want 165 an hour for dyno.

Plus one of our guys cant do the 2nd and 3rd weekend in april.

I called every shop listed on Google. There was a bunch so I can't remember all the names. Feel free to call them and let us know rates and availability.

Change in schedule:

Saturday April 1st

11:00am - Jonny (JonnyBravo)
1:00pm - Mark (Fuhnortoner)
3:00pm - Angel (DJAngel)
5:00pm - JP (JP's 93 FD)

Sunday April 2nd

11:00am - Richard (Chard)
1:00pm - Bronson (Boostin)

***Important***

1. Show up 1 hour early
2. Change oil before tune day
- Steve says NO ROYAL PURPLE OR MOBILE 1
- Steve prefers 10w40 or 20w50 ONLY
- Steve recommends Vavoline, Amsoil, Redline, Brad penn, or Idemitsu
3. Change Spark plugs 2 DAYS BEFORE TUNE
4. Bring an extra set of spark plugs (i didnt see anyone running meth, but if you are, you better be running an ignition amp or race plugs, or prepare your butthole for ignition breakup.
5. Everybody should be running a wideband (they are cheap enough)
6. If your car has problems, Steve WILL immediately pull it off and start on the next car. Once your issues are fixed we can throw it back on.

Thats it everyone. Come prepared. This is an expensive activity were doing here. Its very hard to get everyone organized enough to get steve out here, not to mention expensive. I am for sure going to bring lots of spare parts and my large portable tool box.

EDIT: Bronson and Rich switched.

I am not signed up for tuning (but may need Steve's services in the future one day) but is it cool if I roll through and hang out for a while? I've been out of the scene for a long time and thought I'd check out what type of setup people are running on their 7's these days.
