RMW Dyno Tune in Thomasville, NC

I am trying to gather support for a Dyno tune by Jan from Revolution Mini Works. I need 12 to 16 people to sign up.

There is a Dynapak Dyno available in Thomasville. The dates I am looking at are 18 & 19th of July. Idealy I would like to get 8 Mini's for each Day, to help keep te costs down.

So if you have the regular Cooper S mods (15% Pulley, CAI & Cat Back), you will benefit from a set of JCW Injectors and an RMW tune. If you do not have the 380cc injectors, now might be the time to get some ordered up.

Let me know who wants to get a tune.

Tunes $350.00
Dyno $125 (Depending how many people we get)

Here is the Provisonal List as @ 6-18-2008 @ 6:30pm:

Friday 18th
8-9am:Jose Duque-Mini7
9-10am: Dan Zipkin
10-11am: Dave Shearer-MidnightDave- Pd
11-12pm: Art Payne - Doc - Pd
Lunch
1-2pm: Chris- Custom AV- Pd
2-3pm: Paul Penny - Pd
3-4pm: Mike C- CooperSKart - Pd
4-5pm: Bryan - N2Mini- Pd
5-6pm: Dan - PGT- Pd

Saturday 19th
8-9am: Lee Perry - Pd
9-10am: Chris Thompson - Bluesmini
10-11am: Littlehandegan - Pd
11-12pm: Luke - BluCooper - Pd
Lunch
1-2pm: Mark Roberts - Minimarks - Pd
2-3pm: Erik - El Griton - Pd
3-4pm: SNYPER - Pd
4-5pm:
5-6pm:


I need to start collecting the $$$'s to get everybody locked in and confirmed. I would appreciate everybody's co-operation in getting this in to me as soon as possible and honoring your commitments. If you want to pay via paypal please add the 5% service charge ($23.75) to the $475. Otherwise check or money order. I will send you all emails with my address. For those who have yet to send me emails, let me have those so that I can get back to you.

Lets Get Rrrr Done!

If I have missed anyone, holler at me!


Thanks
Joe

IF this is real... I'm in.

IF this is real... I suggest you cross-post this on the tarheelminis.org forum... lots of folks from this side of the state who aren't in M2C2 who would do this, I KNOW....

Hey Guys,

I have spoken to Jan. He believes that he is avaliable on those dates but he needs to check his schedule. He said that if he is free he would be willing to do it. So I am just awaiting his confirmation.

I really want to make this happen. If the dates do not work out for Jan, I will reschedule the Dyno tune to fit in with his plans. The dyno is available on theat weekend and we need 12 to 16 people to make it worthwhile for Jan to fly out.

So if you know of anyone who wants to get a tune done, this is the wat to go.

great news then... This is truly the deal of the year, with guy's getting between 35-45 H.P gains you can't get a better $ per H.P. out there today....As long as Jan's willing to travel it looks like he's going to be getting plenty of Freq. Flyer Miles...

I'm ALL in!

If anybody has done the standard mod's like me, CAI, pulley, exhaust or more, this is the next logical mod...

(You already have a rear sway bar, right? Well, then wait for it, this is more important. ;-0 )

I spoke to Joe this morning, the shop with the dyno is a neighbor of mine and someone I regularly do business with. I may also have access to a Dyna-Pak to use here at the shop, I would like to make that an option.

Hey Guys,

I am running two posts. One on the main NAM forum and one on the local M2C2 forum for our area. I thought that we would get better coverage that way. I will be checking both to put the list together.

The first 16 will get on the list and will be confirmed once they pay for there spots. We just need Jan to confirm and we can move forward from there.

And Dan the Man at Grassroots is right, we have a Dyna Pak booked for the Coops. I am looking foward to it!

I wanted to give everybody a heads up, to avoid any confusion.

Put me in the 99% sure list, as I'd prefer a Sat. appointment so I don't have to take that Friday 18th off, as I already have that Monday 21st off for the Phil Wicks VIR deal..Joe, you still interested in some black vinyl for your chrome parts? Maybe we can get together to discuss.Bryan
