Steve needs about 3 weeks to work out logistics and travel. I'm going to keep this open until Aug 15th. So if we can get 5 cars or more confirmed with paid deposit, then we'll move forward, if not, then we'll have to cancel and I'll refund the deposits.
Ugh. Im out, will be out of town. Crap

Cosmo - check your PM.

====
The numbers are just thresholds for those with certain expectations.
Example: how can you tune past 25psi, if the car can't even handle a basic tune at 1bar(14.6psi)

===
For those still on the fence about getting a tune - My FD felt like a totally different beast after Steve tuned it, responsive, driveability, and reliability were all there. I was able to daily drive my FD after his tune. Before Steve tuned my car, I was going through motors or rebuilds frequently because of bad tuners that claimed they can do the job. Basically, they weren't experience enough with rotary motors to properly tune it, so up front the car will show that it made more power, but how reliable was it? Getting it properly tuned, will totally transform your car and add more enjoyment of it.

Feel free to do a search for past thread of the tuning session I've hosted - PM those that were on the list and ask for their input if needed

Those interested in finding out what your car can really put out from a proper tune, add your name to the list and send in deposit to lock in a slot. - THX

I was going to cut this off on 8/15, but we only have 4 cars. We need one more so I'm going to extend this deadline.

Come on guys, just one more car.
