Utah Members- March 13th 9:00 AM Dyno Day-

Hey everyone-

Some members of the SLC rotary forum have put together a dyno day at Modern Garage, 4677 S. Cherry St. (440 W.) Murray, UT.

There were only 10 slots available for dynoing, but I believe there may still be 1 slot available. Anyone who is interested in coming and seeing the dynos are more than welcome, and let me know if you're interested in dynoing. PM me for pricing, etc.

I've been working with Christian from Modern Garage on some RX8 modifications as well, namely performance packages, for the 8.

Some of the mods they have available are:

Exhaust, intake & drop in filters, etc.
They also have ECU mods on the horizon, and a lightened chromoly flywheel that should be available within the next few months.

Weird how existing members "become" new members occasionally. Hadn't heard from ya in a while, Dragon! You should come stop by anyway, I won't be dynoing, but a bunch of others will be. It'd be like a "mini-meet" so we can get to know all the other rotorheads in the area. :D

P.S. Let me know how the recall work goes...I need to schedule mine soon.

Hey Dragon, did you ever get my PM about the RMRX8C's group buy? As I recall, you expressed some interest in getting in on this...

I haven't really considered any of the flashes. Have any of the dealer flashes leaned out the a/f mix at all? Or at least given better MPGs?

I just read the re-flash thread, interesting info. I had NO idea Mazda would eventually provide new fuel maps. That's cool. I talked to Damon(service manager) at D. Dahle Murray, he didn't seem to know anything about it, but he has faith in me that I know what I'm talkin about, so he brought over the rotary tech. We chatted a bit, and he's going to try to apply the "L" calibration on Monday. I'll keep y'all posted.

I had my recalls done on Thursday, they went great. Didn't even think to ask for reflash or about my shifter. I'll check with them now though, thanks.
