Today is it.

If I do not have 5 deposits in my hands by 5pm today the tuning session may be canceled. I now have to overnight the deposits to make sure Steve has them by the 1st.

Steve may now require an additional $50 from each of us. Unfair to those that actually made sure the deposits were in by the deadline. But fair to Steve who must make plane reservations with less than 4 weeks notice.

If you have the deposit I will be at my house today from 1 oclock on. Please call me and I will give you directions to my house in Coral Springs.

Waiting to hear if Steve recieved the deposits in time but we were able to get enough deposits thanks to Papsmagu stepping in at the last hour, (literally).

Here's the list of deposits that was sent to Steve

1. Lassen118 – Single Turbo, Street port – PFC
2. SiKoPaThX - Stock Twins – PFC –
3. car hugger – Stock twins – PFC –
4. papsmagu – Single turbo – PFC -

The Fifth deposit was from

IXLR82 – 91 fc Single Turbo – Microtec

I've PMed Steve asking about late deposits and additions as June 30th approaches.

Hey Guys, I received the deposit and booked a flight to PBI today. Everything is a go on my part. Looks like i will be staying with Cam since I talked to him briefly yesterday.

Below is my flight schedule. Since I have a very short stay, I can most likely be able to do 8 cars at the most.

Doug, If there are any additional people wanted in, Please only allow 3 more people on the list. The rest will be on standby if I have time to do it.

If there were anyway to be able to pony up the extra $350, it will be worth it. I predict a full year before Steve is in the area again.

If I was to just show up with cash, and there was time, could I get tuned or is this prepay only?

prepay customer gets the priority on tuning.

Because Steve is not leaving until Sunday evening he said he may be able to tune an additional three cars. If you want to be one of these cars, get that deposit in.

Showing up on Saturday does not necessarily guarantee you time for a tune. It would be a pain to drive all the way to Pettit on Saturday only to realize you'll need to come back on Sunday to get tuned.

Getting your deposit in will allow Steve to better plan his time and give you an idea of when to show up.

If you think you'll be there regaurdless I would get your deposit in to Steve and secure one of the three addtional spots.

TwEaK, I would PM Steve and ask him.

lassen118, no time has been set yet but I would believe it will start around 9 or 10.

So what are you guys doing/have done to prepare for tuning I just got a twin power, boost controller, koyo, and wideband in the mail. I'm also going to change my plugs/wires, rewire my fuel pump, and drop in a PFS intercooler I've had sitting around for a while. Needless to say, I have a LOT of work ahead of me

Tuning Will Begin at 10am on Saturday the 30th

I PMed Steve and got the start time, 10am.

Fresh plugs (all 9's) are best for optimal tuning. Fuel filter change, Plug wires, air filter cleaning won't hurt either.

PLEASE make sure your cars systems are functioning properly. It's not fair to Steve or others waiting if your car is not running right and trouble shooting has to occur.

Steve got a rate of $65 an hour for dyno time from Cam at Pettit. Please remember that this cost is in addition to the monies owed to Steve for your tune.
