I'll take the 14:00 to 15:30 slot on July 9th, that R53 Warrior can't use.

Have you checked with the Puget Sound MINI club and see if they have any folks that might want to come down?

I talked to Jan this morning and he needs one of you to confirm this date with him. Seattle tune will be most likely June 25th 26th.

I had confirmed our July 9th and 10th dates with Jan before I started taking time slot requests.

FYI, I sent information out to all who have signed up thus far on how to pre-pay for the tune. If you've been sitting on the fence, there are only three available slots left. Don't miss out!

Hi Don,

Demi started off with 167 HP and 173 ft/lbs of torque. She ended up with 191 HP and 194 ft/lbs of torque. . The dyno used was a dynojet (roller type) and it was reading low.

With just my parts at ALTA (dynapack dyno - resistance units bolted on to wheel hub) I was getting 178 HP and 208 ft/lbs of torque. I know you can't really compare values from one dyno to another but the one at Garage808 was reading low according to Jan.

I suspect it is probably closer to 210 HP and somewhere around 220 ft/lbs or torque after the tune.
