Kev created at GTG Idea Discussion Thread over a month ago and only 3 people commented. Whatever the majority decides works for me. However, we need for everyone to give us their input to do that. I'm not from Atlanta, so I only know certain areas. I'm always willing to gather and see some new places. A mileage break would be nice. Thanks for the idea Kev.

I want to say well met to all of the guys that I finally had the opportunity to put faces with the names. I would also like to say a VERY HEARTFELT THANK YOU to the guys at Z1 Motorsports for not only making me feel at home but for taking a lot of time out of their day to help me resolve a small issue. I cannot stress enough how appreciative I am for Spencer, Jon, John, Dustin, Russell, and the other guys at Z1.

As those of you were there during my dyno runs know, the HKS EVC6 had not been calibrated for GA yet and I was basically running spring pressure. After a quick call to Sam@GTM, we were pointed in the proper direction and the EVC was set to defaults and recalibrated. The result was exactly what we expected, 485whp and 420wtq. Sam has also informed me that he is sending a new map with a bit more aggressive tune. Next go around, 500whp will be broken at the same boost level.

I had a blast and again, a huge thank you to Z1 for hosting the event and taking such good care of me and my Zed. I truly look forward to seeing all of you again soon.

Jeremy, I'm happy everything was resolved. See you at the next gathering.

Here are a few pictures I took from the meet. Nice meeting you all.

Dustin@Z1 · 07-09-2010, 08:36 AM

Raybuck,
Very nice pictures. You have a PM by the way! Also, thanks for bringing out the Genesis too. I have yet to be able to see one up close and check it out, very cool. Have you and Bryce lined those two up yet?

That we have not; him having 100+whp in a car that weighs the same would make my car look like it's parked hah. Maybe when my Genesis has an evo x twin scroll or gt30r, but that is going to take some time and $$.

Also my inbox does not show a PM, I guess try shooting me another.

Thanks for the great time at the dyno day! It was by far the most organized one I have been to.

Yeahhh, with a tune that'd put me at about 240-50whp and 290-310wtq. Not too bad, but not where you Z guys are at. One day I'll be in the 325-350whp & 300+wtq range. Just need some money haha.
