COMPRESSION TESTS

As a bonus, I am offering FREE COMPRESSION TESTS to everyone who signs up for dyno+tune.

Compression tests will also be available for people who don't wish to get tuned. If you want to do a dyno only, or just drop by to watch and hang out, you can still get a compression test for $40. This will help raise funds to cover any extra spending we may need to do if we don't fill all the slots.

2. DarkBrew (free)

AFTER-PARTY
We're all going for beers and food afterward at the Mill St. Brew Pub (directions). This is open to EVERYONE even if you don't come for the dyno day. We will head there whenever dyno tuning is done, this will depend on how many people sign up in the end.

Please RSVP so that I can make a reservation.

I want to get the lastest tune update from Jeff...if theres any.

Footman 04-14-2010 04:42 PM

Kafka, did your tune improve your fuel economy and/or power numbers? Do you have some numbers to back up?

My fuel economy goes down a little bit I think...from 370 to 350+ before 50L fuel light up...

Dyno...I don't have before (yeah its kinda stupid), I do have the basic tune at 174 vs the tuned one @ 178 max...while it got 1-2 less hp from 4-6k range and 1-2 more at 7-8k range in the dyno...

Not just about fuel economy and HP. With Cobb and tuning, engine seems smoother with no hesitations anywhere in the powerband...

I'd be interested if the date was by the end of this month - the sooner the better

Jedi54 04-15-2010 09:50 AM

Mazdamaniac is allowed in Canada?! Since when?
Did you guys here about what happened last time he was there???

nate340 04-15-2010 10:03 AM

umm no?

He brought too many hot girls to the dyno tune day and was ticketed for awesomeness lolz

tubingchamp 04-15-2010 12:00 PM

I'm curious as well because I want him to get over to B.C. :D

TheWulf 05-21-2010 11:30 AM

Bump... any more interest?

Come on people don't be cheap!

edit: Got us another one... that's at least 6. Would be good to get to 10.

wcs 05-21-2010 01:47 PM

Ok I'm in

TheWulf 05-21-2010 01:53 PM

Excellent.

If any of you guys have friends with MS3 or MS6 feel free to let them know about this as well as Jeff can tune them too.

Chad D. 05-25-2010 05:47 PM

I will need a date b4 I can be all in, but most likely I am into the event!

:uhh:
I'll most likely get a Cobb for this.

TheWulf 06-03-2010 12:45 PM

OK guys I think we have more than enough people to get the ball rolling.

I've been looking at it and we can easily do this for cheap. For about $460 we can get Jeff a flight right into TO (well, Mississaugua) or if the date we settle on has bad prices we can do Buffalo for less and someone can go pick him up. Then hotel for a few days shouldn't be too bad. I expect a grand total of no more than $100 per person to split the travel costs (probably around $75-$80) which is less than last year!

Right now I am thinking July 10th or 17th. Jeff, do you want to comment on your availability?

Thanks all!

edit: updated first post with current info!

MazdaManiac 06-03-2010 12:50 PM

I can do either weekend, but the 17th is better.

Chad D. 06-03-2010 09:26 PM

I booked the 17th of July off in January for some unknown reason!! Weird. I hope it's the 17th.//
Our Loonie is very strong versus the greenback this year also!//
I need to get this cel removed and a tune.

shaojie1984 06-04-2010 02:20 AM

I'm in!

Your best deal is to buy it from Jeff @ www.mazdamaniac.com, this way you save $200 on the tuning.

Added 2 more people to the interest list.

I found a nice spot to dyno but it's a tad pricey, $150/hour (Dasilva Racing). I will keep looking but everyone please be ready to send me a deposit very soon for the dyno and Jeff's travel costs.

If anyone is interested in a dyno only (no tuning) please post your interest as well!

Wulf you wanna get to 200rwhp eh? :P

How much for tune/dyno only? I purchased the MM Cobb back in 2008 and got tuned...Just wondering if there are any new updated maps for the normal NA tune?

Thanks Jeff.

TheWulf 06-04-2010 12:41 PM

Kafka: I'm pretty sure once the midpipe is on and I get tuned I will be over 200, despite the back that I got rid of my exhaust. Should be over 210 once the BHR exhaust hits the market :). Then again I don't really care much about the number, a well tuned ride is most important.

Tune can be purchased online from Jeff @ Mazdamaniac.com, look for the (MazdaManiac Custom Calibration ServiceŽ) at the bottom of the page.
EDIT: See post #1 -- Jeff is giving $100 off for this event!

I will have costs for you guys very very soon, probably today. I nailed down a great dyno spot and I'm working out the rest of the details with Jeff.
