I just wanted to make sure something is understood (I have had problems with this in the past):

You need to have an AccessPORT for me to tune your car.

So, either you already own one or you need to get one.

If you already own one that you purchased from me, you are covered.
If you own one that you purchased elsewhere, there is the usual surcharge and then you are covered.
If you don't have one, you better hurry because I'm not taking any more orders after tomorrow (Monday) morning and no one else will have them for very long if at all.

 

Figure i'll post this up here as it comes in handy for the So Cal dyno days:

Surviving a dyno day:

Have your car in good working order. If it's been awhile since you've changed your plugs, air filter, tranny fluid, diff fluid, etc etc.. do it before the dyno day. Having some worries about plug wires, weird noise, strange smell? Get that stuff checked out before hand. There's nothing worse then seeing a car get up on the dyno only to find out something is wrong and no dyno can be done on it. There isn't time to run down gremlins and anything more then a minor issue (ie: oh, that vacuum line fell off.. that coupler is loose) will result in you wasting your time fixing it and then hoping there's enough time to get back on the dyno at the end.

I've been to a bunch of dyno days and outside of 1 time there has always been some poor guy who ended up having to frantically wrench on his car because of something that could have been fixed before he ever got to the dyno.

Highway8 (heretofore referred to as "da man") is the last word on slotting. He's setting up the rodeo and has put his time and energy into making it happen. He's making the list and checking it twice, so please be there on time. No one has to be there all day, but please be there when it's time for your run. This actually means earlier then your slotted time. You want to have time to get there, say hello, and then get your car ready for the pulls.

Depending on how the dyno operator wants to tie down the car you will either be strapped down using the front tires rear points.. or the tow hooks for the front bumper. Yes, everyone has two tow hooks located in the trunk of your car with the jack. If the dyno guy wants to use these then it's helpful for you to put them on once you get there.

Flexibility is king. Things will come up, people may get shuffled around, some cars might be on longer then others. This is usually unavoidable so be prepared to be flexible and calm. FI cars always take longer then NA cars to tune so be prepared if there's an FI car ahead of you.

Jeff is insane. The man is a machine when he's dyno'ing cars. Once he gets started he'll pretty much work like a hamster on crack till the shop keeper kicks us out or the last car is done. Outside of cigarettes and some crappy pizza, he'll be working on cars nonstop the whole time he's there. He's a great guy but understand that he's there to work so try not to "get up all in his chit" while he's working.

We're all there to have some fun. Treat others as you want to be treated... yadda yadda yadda.

Bring water. It's going to be a long day and having something to drink is key. Yes you can drive off to get a drink but then you miss the chance to see someone's car explode.. i kid, i kid.
Bring a chair. Yes standing around watching things happen is fun, but being able to sit down is nice


If you take nothing away from this but one thing, let it be this: Have your car in good working order. Go over all regular maintenance and change anything that needs changing

 

Based on this list:
There are three people that are not MMCCS customers (#4, #7 and #10).

I have ONE AccessPORT to bring with me to be delivered to someone who's initials are "R.B.".
If this person is one of those three, he is covered.

If this is not correct, please let me know.

 

^^ I placed my AP order on your site this past Friday (7/30), so I should be on the list as your customer

Just one more question regarding this: I suppose we will have to provide you the data logs according to your instructions before the dyno day, correct? In other words, once I received the AP from you, I will have to create the data logs prior to 8/21 so you can use those for the dyno based tuning, correct?

 

logs are for email tuning, dyno tuning its a different animal.

You animal!

 

#4 told me he bought his AP back in May to be delivered at the event.

#7 indicated his MMCCS has expired.

#10 said he just purchased an AP but did not use the link for the event.

I dont know who R.B. is.

 

OK must be R.B. must be #7.
I need to know what #10's real name is.

 

Ditto for me in regards to Dyno location.

 

Wanted to send you a PM with that info but your PM box is full.

I sent you an email instead.

 

Got it. Shipping refunded.

 

Thank you.

 

Hey Jeff,

I ordered the AP from you yesterday 7/1/10 Do you think it will arrive to me before the dyno day or is it best to just have you bring it to the dyno day?

 

I like to go Hayward...........

 

^^ that's the closest for me as well, so it gets my vote... but I'm open for the other locations if the majority prefers any other shop.

 

I think Ill just be there to chill

 

so which shop are we going?? and what time are we going to meet up..

 

15 days to go

 

I am sticking with the shop in vallejo (info on 1st post) for several reason.
1- Very flexible and willing to work late with us.
2- Its closest to me.
3- No neighbors or businesses should bother us.
4- Should have the coolest weather.

Start time of 9AM.

List updated. Deposits need to be in before August 7th at 8AM or you will be moved to stand by.
