Ah good man! I just want to see this happen. Later is actually better for me so I can put more miles on the new engine. Only have around 600 miles and I will be traveling 2 or 3 times this month which means even less opportunities to drive.

Everyone please check the first post for accuracy for exactly what you want to get out of the dyno day. Whether that is:

1) dyno only
2) current MMCCS customer tune + dyno
3) current AP owner & MMCCS new enrollment customer tune + dyno
4) new AP purchase & MMCCS tune + dyno

I'm not getting enough feedback from everyone yet. I need more owners to belly up to the dyno bar!

BTW, both of these dates are availaible with Surgeline:

December 4th, 2010
December 18th, 2010

To secure one, I need to send them 50% down. That is also why I need to get this finalized guys.

Based on how I understand this, it will not be cost effective for me. AccessPorts are not available for S2 (unless somethings changed recently). There fore I have no need to enroll, I us wanted a dyno readout. I can just wait till there's an event that's running a $50-$75 special.

well fml. I don't think I can make it unless Cobb fixes my AP in time. Went and plugged it in and it just just give me "FATAL ERROR: Please contact Cobb with what you were doing at the time this happened." Although, it at least has a cute picture of itself with a dead face on it.

That sucks.
They are usually really quick to fix them. Worst-case scenario, I can tune your car on the dyno with a different AccessPORT and when you get yours back, you can load the tuned file.

I can put you down for just a dyno only? With (8) cars, that would be about $75. I will not ask you to pay for anything else. You would help lower the Surgeline split for the rest of us. Let me know. If we go over 8 hours with Surgeline, I will not ask you to pay more. In fact, you can go first!

I actually located an event that's even cheaper than expected, so I will not be pulling with you guys. However, I may swing in that day, if I have the time, to meet some of you and chat.

good luck

Bummer - at least you wished us luck!

To be honest, I'm not sure this will happen. I guess I need to put a deadline on this, so I can find out who is serious or not.

Not sure - never set something up like this before. It looks like if we only have (7) cars, then the cost breaks down like this, if we get it done in 8 hours:

1) Nemesis8 / '04 MT / NA / Current MMCCS Customer Tune + Dyno $236
2) Dondo / '04 MT / FI Pettit SC / Current MMCCS Customer Tune + Dyno $386
3) Pdxhak / '04 MT / NA / New AP Purchase & MMCCS Tune + Dyno $731
4) and1kidd / '04 MT / NA / New AP Purchase & MMCCS Tune + Dyno $731
5) X Rx8 / '05 MT / NA / New AP Purchase & MMCCS Tune + Dyno $731
6) Interpol / '04 MT / NA / Current AP Owner & MMCCS New Enrollment Customer Tune + Dyno $386
7) dannobre / '04 MT / NA / Current AP Owner & MMCCS New Enrollment Customer Tune + Dyno $386

Is that what you guys calculated?
