No, but it takes less then 10 min. to install it. If it's still available on Saturday I will bring it with me. It feels very mechanical, not as smooth as the stock shifter but the throws are much shorter.

I have it installed on my car. You can test it out if you'd like. I don't think its notchy at all. It feels ten times better than stock and the throws are half as long. I love the thing. One of the better mods out there.

OK, I'll bring it with me. If you ever want to sell it down the road, you won't have any trouble getting what you paid for. These rarely last more then a few hours before they are sold. See you Saturday.

Tdiddy,

So what is our tally? I have a friend that may want to dyno his Charger.

We currently have 12 people signed up and that is the number I was looking for. 5 that just want to dyno and 7 that want MazdaManiac tunes. I can put your friend on the Wait List and if someone drops out, doesn't show up, cant dyno, or we have extra time then he can dyno but I can't promise him a spot.

Do you want me to add him to the Wait List?

If anyone else wants an AccessPORT before the dyno day, right now is your last chance to order one.
Let me know.

Jeff - you have everything worked out on your side with Mark(ARRxATE), right? I know he dropped his car off at the shop last weekend and I will have his dyno/tuning money but I just wanted to make sure you 2 were square on the AP part.

Yeah, I got his order and Noah's as well.

I just wanted to make sure that anyone else who wanted one got their order in.
If I can, I'll try to have a few spares with me, but its hard to hang on to them.

Yeah, it sounds like there are going to be a few spectators so hopefully they will see the gains that can be had and have to buy one right on the spot.

Also, did you see my post about the order? If so, what do you thinks? I am planning to write out the timings today but I wanted to see if you liked the format of a dyno only car between each AP car. I thought it would just give you a little more time.

Time slots on the Dyno have been posted in the first post. If you have a problem with your time slot please let me know and we will try to get you a new time that will better fit your schedule. The shop wants to dyno all the dyno only cars first and then the tune cars second and so does MazdaManiac so that is how we are going to do it.

Sure but I think I can handle this one.

Do you think you can smuggle in a couple of good Canadian beers? The only ones I can think of around here are Labats and Molson.

Tdiddy,
Please bump me up to the 9am slot. Its the only way I can attend and I really want to be there. If you can place Moremazda at 9:30 that would be a bonus as I want to be there for his pulls. Thanks

No problem. You 2 will be first and second. Just don't make the 8 owners look too bad OK?
