Should be paying tomorrow for Greddy Kit w/BNR upgraded turbo. Just depends if I can get everything installed before the MM dyno day!

Nemesis8 10-18-2010 03:08 PM

Nice purchase! You guys are leaving me in the dust....

now if we can just get tubingchamp installed, and let Dan drive his car down for the tune....

X Rx8 10-18-2010 03:28 PM

I want turbo :(

Nemesis8 10-18-2010 03:31 PM

We could have a NA Streetport, a Pettit Supercharger, a BNR/Greddy Turbocharger, & a Hymee Supercharger there....

pdxhak and tubingchamp need to get wrenching ASAP! Seven weeks left....

pdxhak 10-18-2010 03:41 PM

when are you installing? i may have some time this weekend if you wanted some help

pdxhak 10-18-2010 04:57 PM

I'm paying for the kit tomorrow so it should ship this week. I have the coils and the midpipe should be put in the mail Thursday or Friday. I sent a PM to Charles to see what he would charge to fly up for the install. I also put in a request to a local rotary shop to see what they would charge. But it would be cool to have a few guys over to knock out the install. The reason going with a shop is I may run out of time and Charles or the shop could bang it out in a day or two.

Awesome - two slots for you now on the dyno. Do you have access to huge jack stands?

Those will work. Not sure about Dan - he is now thinking of getting his turbo installed before the dyno day.

:lol:

dannobre 10-18-2010 06:36 PM

No turbo til after FEB...have to pass emissions..and they check too much stuff for the turbo to pass :( :(

Nemesis8 10-18-2010 06:38 PM

Oh, I thought you already had it inspected - my bad. No FI for you!

pdxhak 10-18-2010 06:44 PM

Sounds like Dan is available ;)

yeah you gotta sign up for a real tune man..

Nemesis8 10-19-2010 12:06 PM

WE NEED MORE PEOPLE

With only (4) cars with (6) time slots confirmed, the price went up....

There is nothing I can do to change this, so we need more cars if you want the price to go back down.

:wallbash:

dondo 10-19-2010 12:23 PM

what do the costs look like if ggavgg joins us with his turbo 8?
