Steve Kan tuning in San Jose - Feb 16-18, 2008

Hey guys,

We're having Steve come back again this coming Feb for another 3 day tuning session in San Jose, so I just wanted to post this up for anyone that would like to get their cars tuned. Steve will be able to tune about 5 cars a day plus a stand-by if possible to get a total of 15 cars or more done that weekend. This will require a 200.00 deposit to secure a spot for anyone interested. Plus dyno fee from the dyno shop. As for a dyno shop, we are still working out details for that and I'll post up the info once available.

I can start collecting deposits now via paypal, please send 200 + paypal fee = 207.00 to phong_le@pacbell.net

This is his pricing, so look below to see what you can expect.


Dyno Tuning Prices

$350 - Stock Turbo up to 12psi of boost (pump gas only) 1 map
$400 - Aftermarket Turbo up to 16psi of boost (pump gas only) 1 map
$450 - Aftermarket Turbo from 16psi - 25psi of boost (race gas and/or auxiliary injection only) 1 map
$600 - Aftermarket Turbo up to 25psi of boost (pump gas and race gas tune) 2 maps

On all tuning sessions there is a Non-refundable $200 deposit.
Time Frame

Stock Turbo - 45 mins - 1.5 hrs
Aftermarket Turbo (pump gas) 1hr - 2.5 hrs
Aftermarket Turbo (race gas and/or auxiliary injection) 2 - 4hrs
Aftermarket Turbo (2 maps) 3-6 hrs



The list so far are below and would like to cut the list at 15 people and have a couple of stand-by guys.

1. insomniac
2. P.Ritchey
3. twomucboost4all
4. Gotboost920
5. Alex(forgot his forum name)
6. 240guy

Just to add, this is a confirmed date, not asking people to show interest then play hide and seek when asked to send in deposits.

So please add your name to the list if you're serious about getting your car tuned.

The cut off for deposit will be Jan 11th 2008, then I'll send it all to Steve so that will give him roughly 30 days to book his plane ticket.

feel free to PM me if you guys have any questions

I forgot to add this when i initially posted:

You can either do a street tune or dyno tune, it's really up to you. The driver(owner) of the car will be fully responsible while street tuning on the public roads.

Plus Steve ask for this if you're joining us.

1. Bring cash to pay your remaining balance to Steve.

2. Stock turbos - get a second O/2 bung added to your downpipe and make it easily accessible.

3. Single turbos - Remove your O/2 sensor to make sure it's not siezed on there.

4. Change your plugs 1 day prior to tuning, and bring extra plugs just in case of fouling.

There are still spaces available so add your name to the list before it fills up and send in those deposits.
Plus, I know xmas is around the corner so hopefully we'll start to see more deposits after the holidays for those who haven't paid. Otherwise let me know of your situation and we can either work something out or remove you from the list.

For the folks that are joining us, get your cars prep to it's best running condition and Steve will do his part. Thanks!!!!

I think you should learn about rotaries. If your car needs a rebuild, then why would you want to tune it in the first place?
