Tuning Session Huntsville/North Alabama - Gauging Interest
 

Just trying to see who would be interested in a tuning session with a top-notch tuner from PFS (Peter Farrell Supercars) tentative date mid to late November. Updates will be posted as more details are mapped out.

all depends on when

if i can get my car running and broken in by then, i would definitely be interested.

ok, so its more a matter of having it running, i can get 1000 - 2000 miles in a week =]

Don, you also need to note that Ray Wilson has tuned some mean 350Z's and Supra's! So this could be open to others if the rotary crowd does not fill it up.
BTW I am 100% in on this.

I think we have more than enough to make this happem. Just waiting to here from Ray.

anything yet??

I would post the exact words I received from the organizer but I will let him update everyone on what's going on and the next step we take... :lol:

^ is there anymore news on this tuning session and is it to late to get in on it?

Thanks, Steve

update???

Sorry guys, don't know anything yet. As soon as we hear something, we will post and let everyone know.

^ can i still get in on this tuning??

Don, can you try and phone Ray? I am having no luck... We have more than enough cars now.

estevan, if it does happen we will post the days and times that are open. I am sure you can squeze in..

Mike, can you give me a call some time tomorrow. I need to pick up that ignitor so I can get this first second gen fired. Next is mine. The first will be ready to tune for sure but the second one will be a rush job I think. I have alot of fab work to do on her to keep everything i want. REW to S4 TII wiring is a pita! Done but a pita. Just waiting to fire her up and adjust PFC maps to second gen coils and injector sizes. Let me know.

Dustin

Give me a call tomorrow.

Cool, does Ray tune Haltechs? If so i'm in for this tune

Igniter?? what igniter?? LOl... Yeah. I will throw it in the car Tuesday and bring it by...

Ray can tune HAltech I am sure but I will triple check "If I EVER GET HIM ON THE PHONE AGAIN""............

Ok, just hung up with Ray. Shooting for a late Feb. or early March tune. He can not pin point a date this far out with all he has going on but it looks good..

I will want to speak to each person that is going to get tuned to go over a few things. So please PM me when you get a chance.

I will post up RAy's fees and the dyno fees later.

estevan, the number you pm'ed me did not work..

Can I get a guess on price for tuning, I've never paid for it before. If I swap my tired twins in the next couple months I may have to get in on this.

Usually $300 and up, depending on your setup, + dyno time (apox. $100/hr).

I will pass this on to Ray but Don is right as most tuners charge $300 for a base tune and up depending on gas running and how many maps....

Dyno time is $100 hr. @ trackmasters. I will let Ray decide which dyno he wants to use. The dyno Dynamics (static X) is new and set up nice with fans and such, reads boost and always picked up my torque readings were trackmasters does not log boost and seems to have a hard time with certain cars reading torque...
I bet they are $100 hr also.

^ Can't wait. My car is ready to go.

Hey .....I would like to get this done before the Dragon Tail. We still good to get the tune next month?

Feel free to bug the crap out of Ray to finalize a date...LOL....

Just spoke to Ray and we hope to have a set date by Tuesday. Looking to be the end of Feb. So only 5-6 weeks to make sure all is in order!!!

We still need to decide on which shop to use for the dyno. I will post up a map for the dyno once it is decided along with slots open. I will put everyone in order by the sign up sheet. If you need a differant day or time post it up. I would guess Ray to fly in Thursday or Friday and leave late Sat. to early Sunday. So 1.5 days to get it all complete.


Also I asked Ray to monitor this thread so feel free to post up any questions you have for him.

1. Sk8world Streetport- gt4094r
2. HPD Stock port -99twins
3. Doc-1 stock port-99twins
4. Dustinali (1) ??
5. boostedFD3s bridgeport-GTK1000
6. somchhir1 ??
7. estevan streetport-stock twins ?

Sounds good, Im in for the new dyno,Dynamics (static X) but doesnt really matter though.

Heres some of my set up on my SE
S5 TII med size streetport
GT35R .82 hotside
800/1600 injectors
Walbro 255
Med size intercooler
3" exhaust

Let me know if you need any additional info.
Thanks,
Steve

keep this up top.....

boostedfds3... you still around?

Any word on a date yet?

I should talk with Ray in the morning..

Yeap still here buddy....

ok,... here it is..

Ray is coming here Feb. 27th (evening. May tune a couple local cars that night (?) then the rest on the 28th. But will be leaving late the 28th.

Few things that need to happen here. One deposits need to be sent to RAy to save your spot and guarantee you showing up. Also please post the info on your car as far as the build, EMS, what gas you are tuning on, what power or boost you are wanting to tune for.

Please post up any and all questions you have for Ray. (ie; HDP was just asking me how far he could push pump gas on 99 twins) I told him to ask Ray not me... LOL..

This will happen at Trackmasters and I will post location for them.

Now Fees...

$350 pump gas tune

$450 race gas tune

?? for price on pump and race price

$100 per hour dyno time.

I think the dyno has some Sunoco 115 or close but I suggest you bringing your fuel. Besides c16 or q16 -VP import is what you should be running anyway....
If you need race gas and want me to pick up some before hand let me know.

I am going to "ask" the dyno shop owner to let us have use for no charge of a lift if needed...

RAy should be checking this in the next few days so post away...
