3 rotaries, a wrx, and a mazdaspeed protege, and we're driving the stupid truck because everything is broken. *grumble grumble*

Post-tuning BBQ in Fall River! 7pm Saturday, or whenever you're done.
BYOB, and if you want to eat something specific, bring something to throw on the grill. If not, I'll have lots of food (including my famous ribs).

Directions will be provided for getting there.

Just to clarify, that is 75:1 recommended without omp?

Sounds about right. I run around 80:1 or so in my track car with no OMP.

Most likely won't be able to make it Saturday. Have a leak in my rad and am going to try to have it welded up and be able to arrive Sunday morning.

No worries. Thanks for the heads up.

Late night tonight, not going to start tomorrow until 10am. I hope you see this in time Mark before you head over to Ravens.

Yes, for high boost and/or injected setups. 1/3 of a liter if running OMP.

Just got the rad fixed. Heading home to install and leak test it. Thinking I may wait and come up in the morning instead of arriving mid to late evening today.

Glad you got it fixed. If you leave now though, you still have time to make it for Bar-B-Que.

I wanted to say thank you to Pinkracer and Redshft for putting up Marco in their home for the weekend and putting on the great BBQ. I also would like to thank Marco for coming down to help out us "East Coasters" with our toys. James at Raven was also happy with everybody who attended and was pleased to see that now mess was left behind.

Unfortunately some people left disappointed/frustrated with their results (mechanically related) but hopefully we can regroup and possibly bring Marco back down in the Fall when some people get their rides ready. Off the top of my head, I think we'd have 3-4 pepole already interested in a Fall tune session.
