Alright this is an update from the last thread.

The Session will take place on July 9th and possibly 10th depending on interest. Car Version 2 located in Wilmington Delaware will host this event. Each car being tuned will be $350. For cars using the stock ECU, an additional o2 bung will need to be welded into the exhaust prior to this date. We may have them available on location but that hasn't been worked out yet.

The best way to go about this would to have a street tuning session with Steve, and a seperate dyno session afterwards. This is also opened to people who just want to dyno or hang out. The dyno being used is a dyno pak (more accurate then a mustang dyno). Also depending on interest it may be a better idea to simply rent out the dyno for the day. To rent the dyno for the day it's $1,000 and this includes a fresh o2 sensor to measure a/f ratios. If we can get 15 people interested in dyno pulls the price would be approx $68 per car for 3-4 pulls and a print out.

We'll probably have food and drinks available. I'll either steal a grill from my work which is next door, or order some pizzas.

I'd like to collect money before hand so I can finalize everything so this will get off the ground.

If not enough interest is generated then I may post something on www.delawarestreetracing.com to see if anyone wants to use the dyno as well.

Will Steve Kan's tuning be done on the street or on the dyno?

 

I prefer my car be tuned on the street, but he'll tune on the dyno if you desire. It's your call.

 

I would rather mine be street tuned as well. When would you need a deposit for the tuning?

 

The sooner the better for the deposit. You can either send a check or money order, paypal is not prefered for this kind of thing. I'll PM my address to everyone tomorrow or monday, once we get a better figure for how many cars are coming.

 

I may swing through to hang out and get some #s.

 

PMs sent.

 

Kevin should get "primer 1" tuned.
Dan, you remember, the primered black widebody first gen??

Brian

 

$350 to get the car tuned though??? Ugh, I'm not sure about that then......

 

haha, whats up Brian....widebody 1st gen.....you mean the car that I had to drive slow with on the way back from RR because we both needed to save gas to make it to the next gas station?

 

I may roll up there as well if you're gonna come down Rich.

Dan, when's the last day possible you will need commitments from people by?

 

maybe.....

 

The only thing I need a commitment for is tuning, for dyno you can just show up. I'd like to receive deposits for the tuning by the end of this month, or at the latest the 10th of June (1 month prior to tuning)

 

I'll be there, plus it will give me a goal time to have my engine rebuilt and in the car by. Maybe if I can even get the damn boost controller working right (aka no more 25psi+ spikes) I will also hit the Dyno.
Thanks for the heads up Daniel-son!

i may be interested. kind of a long drive, but i may have some more people to cruise down with.

 

u think the bank gives out loans for datalogit and power fc's units??.....::sigh::

 

what do you need a datalogit for? Steve has that.....as for the power FC... i doubt it haha. If you have a house you can take out a home-equity loan.

 

Yea he sure should!

$350's not bad at all. If you check out how much other tuners charge, you'll see a $350 flat rate is pretty damn good, cuz Steve works on your car until he's satisfied and you're satisfied it's running A-ok!

Dan, I'm tryin to make it too...

 

Ramy did you ever send your car out yet? Or what's the deal there..

 

He's waiting untill next winter to send it out since he wants to drive it...
There are 5 spots available. I'm waiting on deposits from everyone. If anyone else is interested PM me for my address so you can send your deposit.

man, i would love to join in but, i dont know how long it will be untill my microtech comes in. Then i dont know how long it will take me to install it. If I can get it done, and their is room, i am sure as hell going to try and join you guys.

Adam

 

also, What will he tune our cars too? If we want, will he be willing to tune up to say 25 psi on race fuel and water injection? Or does he have a limit of where he will tune to for the price?

Adam

 

I'd like to come just to see the other rx-7's, possibly I'll bring my 81 FB (if I get the two o-rings in this weekend)

 

Steve will pretty much tune whatever you want. He will warn you of the dangers of what you want though. But he has tuned with water injection and race fuel many times before and I'm sure he can accommodate your needs.

Travisty,
Like I said before, it's a gathering too. Feel free to stop on by.
