Yup, I was thinking the same thing. I hear sac/elk grove is getting really bad police wise. I mean look at RobTech, he was pulled over for no reason, cops excuse was he 'thought' he was racing. That was in Sac right? I'm 100% legal though, i'm just thinking of the other modded cars.

 

haha im not taking my car...im riding with u gabe

 

word. screw it, im moving to japan, lol

 

HAHA word.

I'll be down to go if theres a caravan goin to there from SF

 

I doubt you guys will have to worry about any cops if you're coming down 99 from 80.


PS. If anyone experiences car troubles on their way to the meet from the bay or anything I have a garage we can use about 5 mins north of the park. on the corner of florin perkins and keifer blvd.

So lets get more people up here.

 

Just remember, Police cars in Japan are only factory tuned. If you can do better than 180K they can't catch you so they don't even try.

 

sweet start the bay area caravan to japan thread and maybe zach will make it a sticky

 

From our past experiences at Elk Grove park there isn't much to worry about. We didn't even see a single cop while we were there. And this will be our 4th or 5th BBQ there. As long as we act like we usually do and don't start being idiots then we'll be fine. Now I just have to put the FC back together so I can drive it to the meet.

I and a friend will be coming from Dumblin..... (Dublin) I was thinking about taking the long way there. Up 580 to 205 to 99, maybe a couple of backroads. Anyhooo, anyone interested let me know. Looking forward to meeting all you freaks. Maybe I can get a little help with my Rtek I am hopeing to get in a few days? :0)

Don't get an RTek!!!!!! It's worth the extra money to buy a real stand alone so that you don't pop a motor. Just my .02

 

Oh man, it is on the way. Ya know, the reason I have avoided the standalone is smog. The Harness. I already have the rtek on the way. I also have the Greddy Ultamite Emanage, just have had trouble getting it working. There are a couple guys that got it to work, but it has been difficult to pin them down.

You think I am risking it running 720 all the way around and 14psi of boost?

Otherwise, I could sell both and go with a standalone if someine can help me out with, ya know.....

 

RTek 1.7 and above it's okay to run 720cc all the way around I believe. Stock turbo or aftermarket? 14psi is on the boundaries of the efficiency range of the stocker..I remeber when everything ran fine 11psi felt like it pulle harder than 14psi..except at 14psi my turbo liked getting red :S

 

I would suggest selling both of those and getting a true stand alone. Is your TII an S4 or S5? If it's an S5 then the new Wolf will plug in to the stock harness.

well i could take a look at the Rtek but i doubt i would be figuring the whole thing out in a matter of a few hours. just not sure if i trust it yet, not that i want to start tinkering with an EMS i have no experience that hasn't been proven and popping a motor, that would not be cool.

 

SmogSUX, I have a T4 Hybrid and have ordered the rtek2.

Boosted, I have a s4. I did create a pigtail from a ECU and harness so I do not have to splice into my main. No way did I want to hack mine up. Ill look into the Wolf, thanks.

Karack, I totaly understand.

 

well, don't get me wrong.. it's just that i just finished rebuilding the first motor that the Rtek2.0 popped so i'm leary of it, though i was not the one who installed it or tuned it i still am sketchy about it since the adjustability of it i heard is very limited.

 

It is more of a temporary thing until winter comes along. My car gets garaged for the winter. Then I had planned on getting the Greddy going, but we will see.

 

Haltech or Wolf FTW!

 

never had anyone disappointed with a microtech yet either.

 

so whos from sf thats going? meet up somewhere like Mc Donald at stones like usual?
