Hopefully someone will break it to Dave before 8/28 that the dyno is NOT at KDR... I see him Wednesday... would rather not have to be the one to do so...
|
WHAT? Noooo...
Dave still thinks it's at KDR??? |
He did when we met Tuesday. Talk about a first class guy too!
|
I'll second that!
|
well ... I am seeing him Monday ... *sigh* I guess it is up to me....

i could probably get a sixth through a friend of a friend for a really good price. i know they have both modelo, blue moon and yuengling beers available. ill ask what else they have. and ill check if it fits in the car.
sweet sounds good dude, I like blue moon, love yuengling and ultra love sam adams summer ale :rock: |
saw Dave today ... he thought it was actually at 2 locations ... I think he took the news fairly well
|
hey wait... I saw Dave today too... and am now minus my car for the first time since i bought it two and a half years ago.
I was there at around 1pm. |
I was there at 8 am
|
Less then a month!!!!!
|
any update on a 10th spot bump? lol... ya'll tell I'm getting excited? I do my base FI tune tomorrow .... GETTIN' REAL EFEN CLOSE !!!!
|
ShellDude ... you live near philly? Why haven't I seen you around?
|
Coventry / Pottstown area
Overworked old man w/ wife and a house full of kids. I made it out to a rib run a couple years back. |
shelldude, if you ever wanna meet up to go to KDR or a meet let me know. I'm right in Rofo/limerick
|
I'm heading back Wednesday afternoon.... hopefully to pick up my 8. I could actually use a ride if you're interested on such short notice.
|
damn, weds is the only day i cant do due to my lil man's 2 month check up which is at 1. i need to get up there soon though so Dave can rework my gauge sensors.
|
I'm sure I'll be back up there before too long. Hard to imagine we're gonna be able to get away with a base tune with no additional tweaking.
With that said, my poor 8 was all down in the dumps yesterday. Airbox pulled, battery pulled, upper intake yanked... front bumper set aside (sigh). It did have a intercooler and my second oil filter installed though! We got set back two days because of $2 gasket. Hopefully it arrives today !!! |
Yeah I feel your pain... my car was at his shop for like 2 months because of trying to get the engine and new turbo there. The gasket is for? I think I had to get one made when I originally installed my turbo.
If you don't get a dyno spot maybe my tune will work for yours since I have a AT too. |
Jeff is gonna take care of me........Or I'm gonna sick Jedi on him when he's back on the left coast!
The missing gasket was for the turbine and manifold. After a day of searching various sources, and it looking like we'd have to wait two weeks, he found someone who had a couple they could overnight... unfortunately overnight ended up being two days. Hopefully he's got the exhaust manifold pulled now and is finishing up. He had to fabricate a couple other pieces for me... had a couple missing / awry pipes, a vacuum hose, and the oil inlet on the turbo too. |

I have 12 of them sitting in my parts bag. |
Dave thought the same thing but apparently it's a T25 XYZ-D (gibberish) or some such...

Nope. It is, in fact, just a regular T25. |
