Im sorry man but i eliminated those too but when you do you have to adjust the throttle screws to get it to idle down. But i understand ive been there before at the last minute!

If anyone else knows of one let me know. Ive called every dealer around and it looks like there is only one in the country lol, and nobody can get it by tommorow.
Come on out, you can borrow my BAC. No biggie.

Sheila talked to Bob Willis today, he will be there first thing (probably 8:30).

Supsai7 my guess is that we would be ready for number four by around 5:00 p.m. but be prepared it could be later if we have lots of problems.

Wow, Good Job ! Now we have 4 ! Woohoo !

5pm for number 4 is what I was thinking. As long as manvero brings us a running car this time and Steve doesn't have to tow-start it up and down the parking lot with his Diesel

I'll try and wake Steve up as early as possible to be there. I have no problem getting up, it's wild man Steve that's the heavy sleeper.

she runs!! i promise. just got in to nate's place here in arnold. he gets off work around midnight and then i think we're gonna try and get an oil change in, and hopefully throw my tranny brace on. gotta grab a fresh set of 9's from oreilly's and some breakfast and then im headed straight to the shop.

on a side note: Burkett, i have a wideband to install....want a side project for in between tunes?

edit: siguy2k, you should show up, there's a BAC waiting for you, and it'd be kickass to have a vert that can hang with all the FD guys.

Well i took it off and cleaned it out. Put it back on and it still did it. So i disconnected it, and now it still does it even with the bac unhooked, so im thinking now that it might be the thermowax. Would that be easy to eliminate? I would still be willing to drive down, its about 6 1\2-7hrs. I really want to get my car tuned otherwise i would have to wait like another month and a half.

Thanks Steve Kan and Eric for helping me out. A broken leg = no job which = no $$$. I do not plan on doing anything else to my car until I am done with college which is another year. So I will EVENTUALLY be tuned by Steve again, one day........

356hp @ 12psi for my S5. Now I need more fuel and turbo. Thanks steven for the switch, and I killed some plants in the house with my thick scent of rotary cologne.

Charlie Weaver put down 494.1 on pump gas only, no meth with old plugs breaking up at the top.

Don't try this at home.

Great session on Saturday. It was a pleasure meeting all of you that were there. I hope to have something to tune next time Steve comes around. I like his way of tuning for driveability.

Also Mr.Burkett, I will be contacting you in the next few weeks about renting out a bay for my soon to be home Cosmo.
