jesuscookies - if the person backs out Sat., I would like to take his spot...if not, I'll stick to Sunday.

I assume this is first come first serve right? What time does Gazo open shop Sat and Sun? I have things planned in the afternoon and would like to be the first one there.

I will keep you posted on the Saturday spot. Gazo will open up shop between 8 and 9 earlier if we need him to. He's alright like that.

Yes, For those of you who have not have had your car's tuned before. You should have a second 02 bung tapped in to monitor so Steve can check Air/Fuel when tuning. If you already have a wideband you are set. If you need one, any muffler shop should be able to do it realitively cheaply.

for stock tt, its fine w/out it. steve puts the wideband O2 sensor in the exaust like always.

But since you're paying for a first time good tune for big single turbo, i totally would get one put in the mid pipe before cat if you have one. you have a couple saturdays before the tune. don't be lazy..

Hope to see all you guys there... this is going to be a real good turnout

Maybe we could all go for a cruise after everyones done both days. I know some great spots, I live less than a mile away from the shop.

turbo240, i'm totally up for cruise afterwards. maybe get a bite or something too. i was the last one to leave the last couple times when i was there at the tune. i'll never get tired of looking at FD's all day long.

heh.. yeah.. 1bar on 99spec twins. maxing it out at safe level. I just want to have safe 15psi for scramble boost and set it back down to 10psi for normal driving. my previous tunes were all w/ stock injectors, so i couldn't get any higher than 12lbs.

As for resturant, personally i wouldn't mind any type of food or resturant, as long as there's parking lot and isn't too far of drive.

For kabob.... you can come over my house... no restaurant is ever better than home made. But you gotta let me know early.

Never been to Velga's... but worth a try.

Olive branch is literally across the street from Gazo's and they have some real good stuff depending on which plate you get. But it might be a little expensive ($20 for a full plate... but it feeds 2 people)

Uh.....that would be my spot. I have you down in the 4th spot, but you never know.

We will see how it goes, but it is best if everyone shows up at a resonable time. The last time I did this we tuned 13 cars, and at least 4 had to come off the dyno to fix an issue. When that happens the next car goes in.

Shut up...you. I am just glad Gazo got the damn thing started. I drove it home tonight, and it didn't even die on me.

What's up with the 420 horse RX2.
