Everyone said my fd wasn't street ported. I didn't make much horse power, and it is quiet compared to the other ones. I know Steve didn't have time to finish tuning 12 psi because of my coolant hose, but it should have made more.

Did you see my old rotor housings because the were street ported? I want to sell mine and get a 1st gen. So I don't have much money invested.

no, but seriously, i had a blast and learned a ton from steve, steve, and you.
i'll definitely be ready for the next tune and we'll have enough time to go to OZ!

Eric, my buddy with the Lightning will probably be in this time because he threw a rod caused by a bad tune. He is getting a new longblock put in right now and then he will have to break it in. Depending on when Steve comes back he may just wait for Steve to tune it rather than have Stagmeiyer (sp?) in St. Charles tune it again.

Sounds good, I'm waiting til I hear from both Steve's before I make a date. We need to make sure both of the scheduals are open.

Damn, I wish I could get mine tuned for more boost. . . If it is the stock port you can't boost it too high right?
