So how many people do you have for the Wilmington session? I may be very interested, I have to see if my tuner will be available before then or not.

So far we have 2 deposits for Wilmington. If we don't get at least 3 more deposits there will be no tuning session at all.

I know another guy that needs to get tuned... he's in the same boat as me. I'm sure he would be very interested if our tuner can't get to Philly in the next 2 weeks. I'll find out this week if I'm in or not.

I don't think you have two weeks. I'm giving everyone untill Monday the 24th to get deposits in or else there will be no tuning session. If I get at least five deposits then we can have a single day for dyno tuning at Car Version 2. But it seems like most people are all talk and no action.

my car is pretty much tuned. just needs a few bugs/kinks worked out. more on the daily driveability side, i dunno if i should pay the 400 bucks just so it can better handle my daily driving. its mostly on the non boost side anyways.
at WOT the car is great, but i drive like an old lady.
plus there also the need for better suspension and axles and rear before i turn up the booost.

i'm in for jersey on the 19th (or 20th if necessary). i'll paypal the money first thing in the a.m. let me know if there's still slots available on that date. i'd love to go first thing in the a.m. so i can get home and go on vacation as soon as possible, but i'll take any time slot available. i'll probably have my friend/mechanic with me who does the work on my car if anyone needs any help and wants to throw him a couple bucks. he's been through my car twice has some great rotary knowledge and has converted my car from stock to non-seq. with a dp, mp, cb, street port, power fc, miata thremoswitch, ast elimination, air pump elimination, upgraded turbos and ic, and efini y-pipe (i'm sure i'm leaving out a whole bunch of things he did).

johny zoom, i'll pay an extra $350 to dyno tune that girl in your avatar if you bring her.

As long as we can get at least 5 deposits then I can get him to come out. If we don't get enough for 3 days I'd like to make the DE session on Saturday and the NJ one on Sunday if thats not a problem with everyone.

Well since Steve only needs 3 weeks advanced notice I'll extend this a week. So far we've got 3 deposits. If we get 5 then Steve said he'd be able to come for one day of tuning. All we need is 2 more people.

****! I just found out about this today...I'm in! Since it's extended a week, I'll wait until payday to send the money via paypal. (Thurs.)

I am 100% 100% 100% in.

I've been waiting for him to come somewhere closer to PA, but I always miss the oppertunity!

Only 288.34 miles from my doorstep to yours...

If we only get 5, is this going to be on Friday the 18th? Or can we make it for Saturday?

We have 4 total. I'm willing to pitch in an extra $75 for my share of the "ghost person" if we need to. If we all 4 did this, that would be $300.
