FINALLY got the car back from Pettit and havent checked this thread in while, Cam told me another Steve tuning session would probably happen (and I forgot I started the thread for it) anyway the engine is being broken in now and should be well broken in when this session happens, I am sending the deposit tommorow so add me to the list FOR SURE!!!
Joe Castleberry

for the love of crap of course Aug 26th is my exgirlfriends birthday I'm sure she'll be delighted I'm choosing the car over her that day, something like this always happens, but hopefully this means my engine wont blow up on the dyno.....fingers crossed!

Simon are you still going to get your car tuned? Edgar is looking to bring his GSL-SE with a 13BRE with a E6K, me and zydeco. I'll talk to Edgar about getting the check to you. How many people do you need to make sure this goes live?

Just send a downpayment check of $200, payable to Steve Kan at

The last time we did this the dyno was only $50.

Im definately interested but as of right now I have 0 gauges in my car. Does this present a problem? Im getting my PFC on monday the 24th so that would give me a few days to install it. It will have a commander so I guess he could get readings from their. Any input is appreciated. Mods are in sig.

I can tell you guys right now that this will not happen on the orginal tenative date since I needed at least 21 days in advance to purchase the plane ticket. We'll need to reschedule this to a different day for sure.

Glad to see you decided to hold on to your ride. I don't think it matters whether you have a guage but I'm sure it would be nice. I'll be putting in new guages before we hit the DYNO. See you there.

There was a question regarding whether this is supposed be done at Pettit. The answer is yes, we just need to get the checks into Steve so we can lock down a date.

Did you send your check in, I did Can't wait

crap! on page three the tentative shceduled date was supposed to be August 26th but I Pm'ed Steve a few questions and he mentioned that he wasnt available the 26th
my money is sent out but I guess its not happening then, so can we get another date because I am having MAJOR timing/fuel issues and after my new engine and turbo($$$) I just spent another >$1K on replacing every cooling component so my last ditch guess is that my timing fuel is causing my car to run hot, so now I can barely break it in because it runs hot, and I am clueless with the PFC and tuning
can we PLEASE get steve here?!

I only received one check so far. that was from Phins98. The guys in DE already made commitment for the date. This is why I made it tentative until confirmed. whoever committed first gets it. We can schedule this to september? Please start a list on what date you guys wanted this to happen so that we can get this going again.

Everyone's check I received will be on hold until we get the confirmation with everyone.

Steve

i already sent my check, Steve should get it any day now. I solved all the problems with my car- after spending a thousand dollars on replacing EVERY cooling component, it turned out the outside of my underdrive alt/water belt was to slippery(knew I should have changed it) and slipped too much at higher RPMs to spin the water pump. Then I had to special order a 29inch 5rib belt because no auto store around me had one. why spend $12 when I can spend $1000?! I hate my life. but I digress....
who is Gaby, and can we please get 3 more people!??! we need five right!?
