OMG LOLLYPOP WATERMELLON! I got my turbo! haha Finally...

I was thinking... is there anybody Sunday that would like to trade me times on Sat.? It would give me 1 more day to put some miles on the car. If not, no biggy.

Awesome! Thank you very much. I will drive the car all night if I have to get some more miles on it. It is 150 alone just going from Yakima to seattle, so I am pretty sure I will get over the minimal minimal 500. I hope to make an extra trip out to tri-cities before the tune to get even more miles.

If anybody cares ... yesterday I worked 10+ hours on the car. Got a LOT of it done. I feel A LOT better. I only have some little things left, some things need to be welded, need some wiring for things I don't need connected to start the car (EGT, wideband, ect.) and am getting some custom fittings made for my turbo today. After adding fluids tonight, there IS a chance I will crank it over tonight. Tomorrow night for sure. It has been an up hill battle, but it looks like I may be able to make it after all!

Ok,
I just got back on here, I am having a heck of a week.
I am contacting Steve now to see what Seth paid for and what I will need to cover. That time is fine with me.
Car is as follows:
1993 R1
99 Motor/Tranny/Diff
99 Turbos/Intake manifolds/Wiring
3" HKS/RB exhaust
K&N Filters
Koyo Radiator and such
It made 306whp on a pre tuned RE ecu, hopefully with a PFC I can do better.


I miss-placed steve's number/contact info, as soon as I can get it I will get a hold of him.
Whats the Dyno time/spot cost? (No time to even read the thread! lol)
Thanks.

1. the spot that Seth has, was paid for in the last session. The 200 deposit should have been voided since Seth was not able to tune but Steve was being nice and letting him carry it over. In other words the $200 is non-transferrable. Marc will owe Steve $200.

2. Marc will still need to pay dyno time. Seth has yet to make a payment. If he wants the spot that needs to be done today.

Here is what Marc needs to do:

1. Contact Steve and make sure that he can fill Seth's spot. I am almost certain that Steve will be ok with this.

2. Send payment to Jet City Tuning for the dyno slot tonight.

3. Contact me and let me know what is going on.

It is a pretty short and easy list of tasks to acomplish. And I am confident that we can fit you in. Marc, if you have any issues with this Bob has my number, feel free to give me a call.

Read above. Steve's forum name is Pluto. Since you are so late though I would really prefer you call him. Bob has his number.

Dyno time is $140. You can Paypal that amount to Kevin. His paypal account is JetCityTuning@comcast.net

This needs to be resolved tomorrow or I am going to have to pull you off the schedule. I am confident that you can make it though.

Tell you what, I've got a PFC with commander and datalogic that works great in my black on black touring. I'll just swap you cars.

semi good news. I almost got the car started today! The build part is done, or to the point where I have been trying to get it started. Found out that some genius decided to plug all the vac ports on the UIM of the RE with glue. I have yet to figure out the reasoning for this..... I am going to go with ....inbreeding ..

OMG - my car idles and runs! BDC helped me big time (to say the least) I will have a bigger longer story about it in a bit when I have more time, but IT RUNS!!

It looks like things might work out!!! I smell SO bad right now ... I had a BAD map before that was SPEWWING fuel out my primary injectors.. like 100 duty cycle at IDLE!

Anyways, all good now. Problem number... ohh.... 183 is done, bring on 184!

Everyone: Sorry I have been MIA for the last couple days. I was down and out with some pretty nasty stuff.

Tweak, Chance & Marc: Glad to hear everyones projects are going well. I look forward to seeing you all this weekend.

Please be 30mins early to your session. There is a good chance that people will not take the entire 2hrs. If this is the case we will get you on the dyno at an earlier time.
