Kevin, awesome! I hope to see Jan on this side of the country soon, for my 6spM. Can't wait to see the dyno #'s, I am running Dinan software right now, works great, but it is not setup for the pulley I have installed.

Hey Mike,
Thanks.I think I saw a thread about interest for Jan to come to Conn.It's amazing what he can do(as everyone knows).I'm enjoying my car even more!
-Your pics look great.You have an eye for making good composition choices.

Thanks Warwan. I got them from Cooper Flags. They are really for the sunroof, but I had the installer put them om the roof and windows. The good part is from the inside you can see right thought them like a tinted window.

I like it. So far mine is the only one I've seen. The only draw back is the people with badges can pick you out of a crowd, but it's fun. I've got checkers on the windows, mirrors sunroof, floor mats, valve stems and center caps on my wheels. I think it's just right, not over done. Marwan do you get MC2 magzine? If so you might see me in it a couple of months. I'm going to AMVIV in Vegas and they want to take some piks.

Yeah, Jan wakes up REALLY early in the morning. I envy him. Is that magazine worth it? I think the NAM magazine would be nice too right?

Jan wanted me to put a 19% pulley on, but I did not really care for that idea so I put a 17% and 2% crank pulley. It seems to work fine. I'm going to have Jan retune it a little later when he has a little more time. But it runs pretty strong how. He's going to work on trying to get the tranny to stay in gear to a higher rpm. Mine up shifts ( on the dyno) at around 6500 rpms.

Hey checkers,
Wish we could get your car get to shift on the dyno day. Your car seemed very strong and it seemed as though it would break the 200 whp barrier.

Also, I noticed that you have a 2% crank pulley, I know Jan always suggests to take those out and are not his favorite upgrade mod. Are you going to remove it by any chance?

p.s. It was nice to have met you. Lets keep in touch and go for some runs with you me , Dr. O and few others. I will try to set up a scenic drive day, hopefully soon, for the people that attended the bay area tunning session.

Sharo

Sounds good to me, let me know where and when. My car did go to 201whp, but like some of the other cars he detuned it a little for driveablity. After AMVIV I'm going to take my car down to Jan place and leave it for a week or two, so he can play with it. And no I was not planning on taking the pulley off, unless Jan thinks it might cause a problem.

Looks like we are on the same boat man! I've got an auto tranny too. Mine shifts on 6900rpm.
