The earliest I can do this will be April 28-29 weekend. I think I already reply some emails recently but I wasn't sure if you guys already decided a date and/or you wanted me to set a date for you guys.

I was just in San francisco back in Dec. I don't think there were any plans to go there at this time. If you guys can gather enough for Nor Cal, I'm sure I can setup an schedule for you guys. Other than the April 28-29. My next available time slot will be in July.

i'm most definately in if i can get the funds, work just cut my hours and i need to get my ignition deficiency sorted out. I hope i have 450 bucks by april as this is a pretty big deal for me.

XS engineering must be laughing at me for the 300 rwhp for $700 tune they did...im pissed now. Someone please say that 300 rwhp on a t04e is sad. My car also is pretty bucky and erratic when i let off the throttle/hold rpm's, i believe that steve is pretty good about fixin that.

I'm going to have a jacob's fc1000 by april...
What else do you recogmend Steve in the field of ignition mods; everything is stock right now...i need advice so my car is up to the task.

thanks in advance:
Brian

I hope to have my car running and I'd love to take it down in late April. As soon as we start seeing dates/times I'll put a deposit down.

Count me for the first spot on Friday, 4/28 (if that is one of the days).
That is the only slot I can use as I need to be back in SF that evening to prep for the next two days at Infineon 4/29-4/30.

talked to louie at RRR, (dont hold me to this) but he said the dyno rate if someone else is doing the tuning is $75 an hour...normally 125 if they are tuning.

i think that is going to be the best price around, but whoever is organizing this should givem a call so they can confirm price and date...or confirm on that dynamic autosports price and whatnot...

714-839-8018 for RRR

Whoa, 75 and hour is a great price. Almost to the point of being unbelievable. Either way, Ill give them a call once I can get a confirmation on the dates from Steve. Thanks for looking into this.

as steve said they are pretty cool, 125 is the going rate of some shops, them tuning or not, but RRR is pretty chill

I've still yet to hear back from either Steve K. or Scott at RotaryX/Gotham on this. Once they contact me with the details, i will pass the info along to the group and we can figure out dates, locations, deposits as confirmation, etc. There's not much we can do without confirmation from Steve, so Im in the same boat as you.

Okay So... i'm planning on joining you guys for this but I have one quick question.... Okay my fuelpump is a walbro 255 and this is gunna be what is limiting my horsepower numbers.(800,1600injs) I do not have a fuel pressure gauge and am wondering if steve will be able to tune my car easily for almost the limit of the fuel pump without having a fuel pressure gauge to watch. i hear the limits of 255's are around 480rwhp does that sound right?
