Detroit Tuned @ "The Dragon"

Yes we will be at the Dragon again this year doing installs. This year plans to be even bigger and better than last year. We will be bringing down some help this year along with more items, and hope to even have some weekend deals. This year i am opening it up, to install almost anything anyone wants! Exhaust included! We are even planing on a group buy for exhaust, I just need to know how many people would like to do this and on what system. To it's never to early to start thinking about what items you need and start to talk things over with us to help you pick the right parts.

We will be doing installs Tuesday May 1st till Saturday May 5th. the 3rd, 4th. and 5th will book up fast so plan ahead.

You plan on leaving the exhaust with Fontana?

I'll have to start looking around at what to get for the MINI. Maybe suspension if the money is there. Since you're bringing some help does this mean you can do almost all installs including the Alta stubby antenna?

I hope Chad is charging for installs. He won't make much money on hardware sales alone!

I am definitely interested in hearing about the group buy for an exhaust. I'm in the market for one, just need to know what brand/model and what the cost is going to be so that I can start stashing the necessary mod funds.

A BBK normally runs $150 to $200 depending on what/if you add to the rear. but that should get you close. Give me a call to talk more about this.

Still have room for two pulley installs? My dad (2Miniacs) and I are looking to both get one. We haven't finalized a schedule yet though, so I'm not sure when we'll be able to come see you. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't already too late!

Would you all be willing to do a Stage 2 brake kit @ the Dragon? If so, how much for the install and will there be any MOTD deals for that?
