Is it still too late to invite others to the event? I don't want to go by myself hehe. With your info I can send out an FB invite to see who can go. There are a few interested so far.

Its not exclusive ...so invite away.... he said the final place can hold up to 100 cars. I'm not sure on the shop but I'm sure it can hold the same.

edub370 01-24-2012 07:59 AM

^^ correct!

i cant garuntee how many we can squeez into dyno tme, but inviting more for the cruise would be awesome. it should be a good time all around for people to enjoy even if they dont dyno

DIGItonium 01-24-2012 02:57 PM

No problem. I'm not sure who wants dyno time, but I'll make note of it on the FB invite.

tower74 01-25-2012 09:13 AM

Yeah I talked to Chad yesterday and I'm still waiting for an answer from sts on the uprev tune that is sent with the kits. He said that it wouldn't be a problem. If this works out I will be using him for all my upgrade needs.

JacksonZ33 01-25-2012 12:05 PM

hey, I'll show up, I forget to check this forum now and then.

i just spent my winter funds on new coil overs and suspension parts. so with no power upgrades i have no need to get on a dyno yet. Down to come watch and hang out tho.

NICE. what kinda rides should we expect you to be comin up with?

DIGItonium 01-26-2012 02:21 PM

Some Zs and Gs from the Aspire video. One of the guys that did the photography and video responded as "attending." He has a Subie. Another has a flush G35. I invited several others (turbo s2k, a couple modded 350Z DE, modded 350Z HR, etc.).

I would love to use the dyno time to dial up the boost while monitoring the car for safety (got the UpRev cable). If they have time, it'll be cool to get it tuned (if necessary). Initial plan was for a Dallas road trip to an UpRev tuner.

I can pm you Chad's number and you can hit him up. I'm sure with the dyno list you might have come in a day early but I'm guessing on that one.

edge573 01-26-2012 03:09 PM

yeah Ill def be there. got someone to work for me that sat. should be a good time!

edub370 01-26-2012 03:18 PM

^^ awesome!!

perfect! sounds like a nice carpool should be heading our way!

tower74 01-26-2012 04:29 PM

Hell with this being the first year of this, I can only imagine how many will show up next year.

i know right!

and ya if you are actually wanting to "tune" i would say probably should get that done a day or two before jsut because we are already gonne be cramming cars in to get 3 pulls in, so i dont know if we would have the full time neccessary to tune that day

tower74 01-26-2012 05:24 PM

I like your post count...666 :rock:

sboden 01-27-2012 04:10 AM

I have minor upgrades, so if someone with more wants the dyno time I'll give mine up.

edub370 01-27-2012 07:48 AM

^^ thanks for being flexible. i think most of us are understanding enough to let the people who really wanna dyno go first. i'm the same way. i'd like to to, but if theres no time, i won't lose sleep over it. and as stated before, we dont need to be out by any certain time, so we dyno until we get tired of dyno'ing i guess

DIGItonium 01-27-2012 09:28 AM

No problem. I can use the 3 pulls to dial close to 9 PSI while monitoring AFR. It's running whatever conservative tune Sam provided for 91 octane. It's pretty rich, too, with a bit of headroom for more boost. If I can make it through without requiring a tune, that'll be nice as well.

sboden 01-27-2012 09:31 AM

Who did your headlights?

tower74 01-27-2012 09:59 PM

:ninja3:Well it's looking like I will do the dyno now. Got something in the works for the Z and after the meet up it'll probably be gone for at least a month. So now it's more important than ever to have all my parts in by Feb. 20th. Damn this will rock...sorry no info on what's gonna happen....:gtfo2: I think my wallet is about to pack it's bags and find a new home.

edub370 01-28-2012 09:41 AM

I think your wallet packed up its bags after the body kit :roflpuke2:

sboden 01-28-2012 10:22 AM

My wallet is scared to get within 2 miles of Tower's wallet.....

tower74 01-28-2012 11:39 AM

Just when I think I'm done spending money for the year something else pops up and it's back to square one. If the price is right ill do it but if I'm looking at another 2 grand, I got to draw the line somewhere or I'm back to where I was 2 yrs ago and working only to pay bills.

edub370 01-28-2012 12:22 PM

sts tt setup....????

tower74 01-28-2012 12:26 PM

Nope.....he said its pointless for twins because the single can make up to 950hp

At the same time he did say they would build it if someone really wanted it but you better be ready to not see your car for about 2 months

sboden 01-28-2012 01:11 PM

Who did your turbo setup or better yet where was it done?

tower74 01-28-2012 01:50 PM

If you're asking me...I bought it from executive performance in meriam,KS. I would not go that route, I would buy it online..like from UAM --jamicia. Save yourself about 800-900$ on taxes, plus Andrew is a great guy to do with business with.

Now as far as install it was also done by them (exuctive performance) but I warn you now. They work on mainly domestic cars and will take 2-3 weeks to finish. I would check with MKC to see they could do the install or hell do it yourself and save another $1200. Many routes to with this system.

I'm excited to see some truly done up cars. I want my headlights done and my taillights smoked. My major problem is the Z is my daily driver. I can't have the down time.....I have a 3rd car but my daughter drives it and the household would have a tough time with just 2 vehicles.

Just did a hour worth of studying on the STS turbo. Sounds interesting. I can't wait to see and hear it in person. YouTube videos suck for this stuff.

tower74 01-29-2012 10:46 AM

Well I'm hoping that the CF Amuse kit comes in by then and I can fix the off and on misfire. That's what I got planned for my week off when I get back home.
It's my DD as well but with my job I've got a company truck. I can use it as my DD when I want but it's a long bed F350. Damn thing is like driving a limo. So yeah the 8 weeks I didn't have my car was HORRIBLE. I'm wishing I would of listened to my friend and installed it ourselves at our shop.

edub370 01-31-2012 08:09 AM

man hope we can get some weather like this on march 3rd. waking up at 6:30 to 58 degrees in january isn't too bad

erkthejerk73 01-31-2012 09:48 AM

wish i was closer

edub370 01-31-2012 10:52 AM

agreed. we are a scarce bunch in this part of the US
