Jan (RMW) dyno tune at AMVIV interest?

Is anyone interested in getting Jan out to LV to dyno tune our cars? Seems like a cheap way to get an instant 20HP. We would need someone locally with connections to get a dyno for a day or two. I'm sure we could convince Jan to do it if we could get the dyno.

Phil

I was hoping for the same thing but I read somewhere that Jan won't be doing tunes at AMVIV.

Me too, but I'm starting to wonder if either the Bay Area or Fresno area tuning parties are going to come together before then. Financial situation being what it is currently, I wouldn't mind putting it off for a couple months anyway.

Well, as an Albuquerque resident, I'm going to have to travel to get a Jan tune. The closest he's ever going to get is Denver, Phoenix or LV at AMVIV. Hence my interest. If we can get 8-10 people over 2 days, I think it's economically viable.
The SF and Fresno tunes ain't gonna help me.

If anyone can find a local shop with a dyno that will work for this, I'm happy to promote it on the AMVIV site, but I don't have any local dyno connections nor time right now to build any.

The RMW tune is the best performance bang for buck, right up there with the SC pulley, for the R53.
