Hayward is fine.
Looks like I'll be flying in since its only 2 hours each way vs 12 and gas will cost almost $400 for the round trip!
I'll come in on Friday night and go out on Sunday afternoon.

hayward august 2nd works for me. MM, if I purchase an AP from your website would you be able to bring it with you? And what would the cutoff time be for purchase to have it on Tune Day?

If you're coming in on Friday we have a meet in Union City around 7 if you want some free dinner.

If you want an AP for that weekend, you would need to purchase it by the 25th of July.

Depending on how many people we get togeather we can do it 1 of 2 ways. They will charge $50 per person for 3 dyno pulls or they charge $100 per hour. So $800 for the day devided by the number of people who are coming plus $60 for tunning to MM.

So please update the list if you are in or not and if you want to buy anything or have your vehicle tunned. If you are on the bubble about tunning or buying something please contact MM or CH. They both provide great products and excellent service.

For info, the shop has the dynojet 2240 with the load feature?? I believe thats right. I wrote it down somewhere.



1. Carson (c41250n) Tune and maybe new coils from Charles (8/2, SSF)
2. Elliott (SebtownRX8) Date/location?
3. Brannon (rx82hate) If car is back togeather Date/location?
4. Matt (laythor) Date/location?
5. sharief (g-gray dude) Any day is okay but i prefer san jose, concord is okay too.
6. Leo (dontfeedthenerd) Date/location?
7. Niel? (N rider89) maybe? Date/location?
8. model_no15 maybe? Wants the BHR coils 1)Fairfield (2)concord, san jose maybe
9. Scott (Highway8) A more aggressive race tune with no cat. Augest 2nd
10. type59 not sure? Date/(SF)
11. lazyboyw (1)San Jose (2)concord, (3)Fairfield. Might get an AP
12. T-ReX-8 (1)Fairfield (2)concord, san jose to far
13. toneskii707 Date/location?
14. FriendlyDaCat

Ok, I'm not selling this. I'm back in.

Where's the shop in Hayward? If they are on Dollar Street, it might be the same shop that did the last dyno meet...

There dyno had issues... Friendlycat and I both had "electrical" interference during the dyno. The dyno stopped pulling after 7k rpm, I was pulling 190-195hp at 7K, had the RB flash and I could never know how how HP I really had.

You can't turn boost down with a boost controller. It doesn't work that way.
You have something hooked up wrong.

So, you were boosting to one level (say, 9 PSI) with the Int-X and simply taking it off made it go to 11?
Analyze that statement for a second.

sorry Jeff, but im really no expert here!
so i took out the int-x, i was boost 8psi, but i replaced it with the AP with your CA maps on it, and now itz boosting 11psi!
the only thing that i changed or moved are the vacuum hoses!
