Hey B how bout this, those that know us think! I throw the $$ to buy the new logit! You send your's in get it fixed before the next decade, and or few months to get it fixed (and I'm talking like your 125(75) dolla core on your engine mounts). Sell yours fixed, and split the deal in the end. I hold the logit, then there's no worries about you tellin "foo's" no because you don't want to hurt their feelings? Works for me...and we can tune your car?

Unhappy

Latest list...

Well got bad news from A-Spec tuning today, my turbo kit isn't done yet, been 3 weeks since I ordered. They said the wastegates from Tial are on back order and they don't know when they will get them in, so I've had to have my leave pushed back 2 weeks so I wont be installing the turbo, fmic, radiator and other misc parts until the first week of march (if the turbo comes in by then)... I sure hope i'll make the tune, if not I'm scewed!

At this point it looks as if we may have 2 sessions. We will for sure have a tuner come out March / April time frame. And then, as long as there is enough people to make it worth while we can bring out the same tuner or another tuner in May or June.

Who would be ready for a tune in March?

Works for me as long as before Bandimere opens which is mid April. I'm really mostly concerned about NHRA import drags in June!

Yes, the car will be done before April 1st, it's just the fact that Tial couldn't get the wastegates to A-Spec so that is what is holding me back from doing my car next week like originally planned!

I'm in for early april. BTW This would be my first time with a aftermarket ecu, so what do you estimate this is going to cost each of us?

So what are you waiting for? Let's finish it! I sent you the email that may just fix the data logit.

$400 w/ dyno time? my guess, Mike B will know more...


As for your ECU, good luck with that bro, I went through a nightmare with the turbo lol, had to cancel and order my new turbo from A-Spec...

$400 is roughly what BDC costed us.....but if we get Demitrious it will be a little more. Carl Maritin should be about $400 too.

Hey you get what you pay for and just as long as I get a good tune I'll pay the $$$, just as long as we aren't talking over $500, then I'll get a little worried lol

P.S.- Mike or anyone out there have a Power Steering pulley for an FD??

Well I think we, your new primary injectors, 2nd fuel pump, and 1/2" fuel line all know what I'm waiting for $$$. I got the mirrors covered though...
