Anybody else interested in getting their car on a dyno for a couple of baseline runs? Anybody else interested in getting a custom dyno tune for their MazdaManiac AccessPORT? Anybody else interested in buying a MazdaManiac AccessPORT and getting a custom dyno tune for it? Anybody else interested in getting a custom MazdaManiac dyno tune for their eManage Ultimate or Interceptor-X?

We would still like to add a couple more cars...

Awesome! More time on the dyno for me!!!

3 weeks to go. I can't wait. Hopefully my latest change to my MAF tube fixes my problems but if not I have a backup plan in place.

Does everybody have everything they need? If not, make sure you contact MazdaManiac or Charles R. Hill...

There is already an Evolve meet, at the lakeshore, that night. I was planning a LSD/Lower Wacker cruise. End point TBD.

If you havn't signed the papers yet you have all the power. Their hurting for people. Good luck and remember the hardest part about basic is the mental game. The AF is different, their hardest part is folding their shirts in perfect aquares

yea, comp. test for me too. I wanna see if 2 weeks worth of driving has effected my compression at all. also the clutch reinforcement option for me remember?? are you writing stuff down when we talk?? or are you just getting old ray? haha and hopefully if im lucky....which im sure im not as the way things are going lately, possibly the ignition upgrade like we talked.
