Yes, we do that with Gateway usually in September and we alternate years hosting. Past locations have been at Hermann (which is kinda far from KC and kinda too close for St. Louis) across the river from Jefferson City (kinda in the middle for both) and, my favorite, Rocheport which is a few miles west of Columbia (closer to KC than St. Louis).

welp, the dyno tune at mkc today only yielded 293whp with 244tq.... lower than i expected. couldn't tell u the gains because by the time i got there chad was already tuning...

BUT throttle response is improved by about 10000000000x. that stupid electronic throttle lag is gone, and the bottom end is much more responsive now

JacksonZ33 04-19-2012 10:07 AM

how much is he charging for a tune/ which product?

JacksonZ33 04-19-2012 02:51 PM

edub370 04-19-2012 04:26 PM

May 4th-5th mine will be at Chad's shop. Called today and told me he was booked until then. So yet another week of " I want this shyt fixed finally" attitude. Now to just to save to get the kit installed before Z-fest.

edub370 04-19-2012 10:09 PM

he should be able to get u going in the right direction with those tuning issues for sure.

At least you have a date. Light at the end of the tunnel hopefully.


Nice gains EDUB...much better than what I got. I'll probably wait until FI though as the canned tune helped smooth my throttle out.
