well, I'll go ahead and remove you from the list and add Konig. You're definitely welcome to swing by on the 26th and hang out for a bit.

Are you running the X? I ran it for a few years and I will be happy to talk to you at the dyno meet.

To whoever plans on purchasing an AccessPORT at the event -

I will have 5 with me. Its first-come, first served.

So, if you want to ensure that you will get one, I suggest you order ahead of time.
Send me an e-mail at ap@mazdamaniac so I can make arrangements.

note to self: stand FAR FAR away from Taj's car when it's on the dyno.

2nd note to self: Make Taj go last in case his car explodes. Dont want to hurt the dyno for the rest of us.

OK.
So these are the AccessPORT peeps so far:
  1. Jedi54
  2. Razz1
  3. NgoRX8
  4. slavearm (Mazsport Stage 1)
  5. Sleeperx8
  6. Dynamic Cookie
  7. Psychofox (MM Greddy Upgrade Turbo)
  8. cesaralaniz
  9. Konig
  10. photomunkey
Please send a short e-mail to ap@mazdamaniac(.com) with your REAL NAME, FORUM NAME, e-mail address, year/model, mods (intake, exhaust, turbo, injectors, etc.) and what calibration (if any) you are running at the moment and your present fuel trims as well as any other pertinent current performance data.

This will make the process much easier and quicker and yield better results.

Also, each of these cars will need a few minutes off of the dyno for some street adjustments - especially the turbo cars - so plan accordingly.

Each of these cars will get more or less the same attention, so understand that, with the limited time, you will get better results if we are close to tuned before we start doing pulls.

Won't hurt the dyno, but oil and junk everywhere is not fun.
Plus, we would need to push it off the rack, so eat your Wheaties.
