Jan,

Can you tune the '04 JCW sir?

Turner's Shark Injector would not speak politely to the JCW software, so I had sort of given up on it.

Turner's DynoWorks setup set a baseline for the car at 158 lbft@ 4k, and 165 whp@ 6.8k but I reckon there is more reliable power to be had.

The drive train is "stock JCW" plus K&N filter in the stock airbox - as installed by MiniPeabody in the spring of '04. At the time the JCW kit had not yet included the new airbox.

Thanks,

Charlie

I was waiting on some dates. I gave Jan and Kyle each others contact information and thought Kyle was going to call Jan to hash out some dates.

Jan when are you available? If you have a date let me know and I will get it set with Bishops.

Hey Jan, quick question...I'll be getting larger injectors in prep for your tune, should I go with 380's or larger? Current related mods are: CAI, 16% SC pulley, Header, Random Technolgies High Flow Cat, Cat-back.

380's Helix or JCW are the recommendations unless your running a after market high flow head like Jan's.

I am seriously interested. April 13th is the NER regional opener (points AutoX) so I hope a later date may wind up working for everyone, but we shall see.

Thanks to all for creating this opportunity.

OK the date is set for April 12 & 13. AstroBlacks will be making a schedule so he will be getting the information together over the next couple days.

Please let him know if you will need injectors installed.

Jan can you let us know if you can tune without the injectors and the downside. I just want everyone to know the pros and cons. I know the injectors will get the most out of your tune.

Please put me down for the 12th (anytime). I also need injectors installed.

by the way, will injectors be sold there? or should we come with them in hand? if sold there, how much?


this is great! I am really excited. Thanks Jan for making the trip. I'm sure we all appreciate your efforts.

That would be nice. But i'm more than willing to make the drive down to Canton, CT. Would you put me down for the 13th. I would also need injectors installed. Will they be sold there? If so, for how much and can they be installed before the tune? Thanks a lot!
