I really wanted to make it down there to check out the scene and help out if need be, but Im stuck at work painting a mustang right now, Ill wake up early and head on down, its about 2 hrs from my place. I would like to see as many minis and meet as many people as I can. Hopefully there is a big event coming up where we can all shine and show.
Hope everything is going well down there! I sure am enjoying looking at these great results Jan, keep up the good work!

Hey Guys! i hope everyone is having a blast! In an earlier post on this topic, ear to ear said he had a GIAC tune already-so does this mean Mr. B can tweak this software into better performance, and still keep it GIAC or is it now RMW? So if I had EVOTECH for example working fine , it can be goosed into better performance with Mr.B's massaging and still be EVOTEC?. I was thinking, since all the hubbub over pure13 and our reaction, that perhaps I could find a spot with you down there to use my car as another test -good, bad, indifferent since I'm at stage 2. I got cash, wife's out of town with the kids,shh- but am working today and live in Ferndale(Bellingham), but could be there @crack o dawn on Sunday,if its possible for you, if not, no sweat, just trying to make it right for all of the membership base, be a stand up guy,and to find out for myself,so as to check on my EVOTEC purchase-If we find a problem in EVOTEC and its proved-I buy the beer-360-957-5636 ask "the Man" if willing -if not cool too wish him well and thanks for helping our club members.

Shame- would help to clear up all the chatter going on, and help verify if/any probs with the evotech, I got mine done around the same time as pure 13 and seem to have no problems, thanks though, for helping the club members smile. Happy Flying

Thanks again Jan!
194 HP & 168 TQ at the wheels are what I am really expecting for with my modest mods. That's it for my Mini mods and will now start on my other car.

Now that is some fine exhaust work on that car. Looks more like exhaust flex pipe. Any way you look at it, I'd never let them touch my car.

I guess internet sarcasm is hard to pick up......but I did use the <----face!




I just wanted to show the SAME level of skill it took to do the welds! I learned better in middle school crafts class!
