I might be able to make this but I'm in Western NY (Rochester) so Syracuse/Roch/Buffalo would be MUCH more convent.

Also, I know a couple MINI people around here that aren't on boards that I could probably drag along. If we did a WNY one.

I am interested in getting a tune.
I missed out last time you were in Philly.
Put me on the list.

BTW, the Rotrex kit really came out nice on Longboard's car Jan.
(sorry for the ball breaking)

FYI 380 Injectors are HIGHLY recommended for the tune.

...and so is the RMW Head...the RMW exhaust...etc, etc.
More mods = better tune.

Thanks for the advice though. If I can scrounge some cash together maybe I'll try and find a set.


Does this place in CT have a DYNO?

Yes, it has a dynapack dyno, which is what the tuning will be done on.

$85 for Injector Installs if needed.

what about mid may so you dont have to do back to back weekends and it will give more time to those who need to put on more parts before a tune

Is it just me or is anyone else dying to get a tune? I think I've checked NAM 10 times today to see if there have been dates finalized

If all works well would you be coming back maybe later in the summer or next spring? I just got my S but would really like to get a tune to match the mods later down the road.

From what Jeff told me, Jan and Bishops have been talking, and trying to hash out some dates. I believe Jan said that he would know this week, but I have also heard nothing.

Jeff, where are you? Have you heard anything?
