What's to debate....You want it, get it!!

tiger123 08-08-2013 12:25 PM

EcuTek
 
Well gents, I finally pulled the trigger and decided to get my Z professionally tuned. I purchased the EcuTek GB from Joe at Dynotronics. It has been shipped and I expect to receive the kit tomorrow.

Joe is a great guy who took the time to answer all my questions and I really look forward to working with him to "lock in" the Z.

Joe advised it takes on average 4 to 5 tries to officially tune the vehicle. I will post before and after comments.

The debate is which one of the 100 or so variations do I get. Leaning toward the Type R knob or even the Big Type R

But I love the way it makes the shifter feel. I never thought it would, but it made shifts noticeably more effortless.

When you guys do the Starved Rock Cruise on the 25th are you stopping in Seneca at the BP like always or going straight through? I have the day off and if nothing pops up I should be able to meet up and talk with you guys for a while.

What's this about a Starved Rock cruise? I know its been talked about in the past. Good to hear it will actually happen.

Any details on the 8/25 cruise would be greatly appreciated.

Gracias.

One_Quick_Z 08-13-2013 10:51 PM

I believe Ken made an event on the FB page.

It will be great to see you guys even if I am just pimping a civic for a daily lol.

Nothing like adult problems lol sell the Z, baby on the way and selling the house and moving, nothing like doing it all at once.
