Just a suggestion. To make it easier for Steve - you guys should probably post up what EMS your running.

Everyone has 2 hr blocks.. If a car finishes early we can start early on the next car.. We will also take a lunch break.. If you want to dyno after the street tune let me know also.. Just rememer a street tune is a stret tune.. not a RWHP tune. You get max whp on a dyno only. Also with the hot temps here I would do te dyno for sure.. Dyno fees are 75/hr.. He will start when he car is tied down.. The balance of th tuning is due prior to gettin tuned. Dyno fee will be paid after the dyno tune (no more than 90 minutes is the norm)..

This is what i have for saturday...

PSI R2--Street tune--8am
icecreaman--Dyno-10am
Gonzz #2--Dyno--12pm
Jrsprjctrx7--Street tune--2pm
Tunsoffun65---Street Tune--4pm

This is what i have for sunday...

Gonzz #1--Dyno--8am
Mike 7--Dyno--10am
Phil RX-8--Dyno--12pm
xblazinlv--Dyno--2pm
FrankV702--Street tune--4pm

I just talked to Steve Kan...I want to make sure everyone installs new plugs prior to the tune. Might be good to have a extra set also...02 bungs should be easy to remove and install another sensor pretty easy... 1 week left...

I might have to change a few things. I'm gonna have all the dyno runs first on Saturday. That way the dyno shop is not waiting on us. They are staying open for us. We have 2 dyno cars then he can close up if needed. Let me know what u guys think..

The dyno is opening up @ 8am for us. The first dyno car will be @ noon. That's a 4 hr waste.. I'll xall the dyno and see what the want to do.

put the 2 dyno cars together, so they can open at the start of the first car and do the next one. otherwise tell them to not open up til noon, then its not a waste

Thanx bro, got worried since I might have to put some overtime into getting the ignition setup right. It's just not working like I want it to.
