Thanks to Mike & Gruppe-S + Soren

Thought I busted a hose on my way to a tune, thinking "crap" one more feakin thing to deal with, so ran to MPJ before my tune at Gruppe-S, and Soren checked it out, topped me off and sent me on my way since the hose wasn't busted. Ends up I have a crack in radiator, urghhhhh, but still drivable for a little while.

At Gruppe-S, I spent the day going from completely stock eng. to having installed "conservative daily drivable but with a little more kick" mods. This is my daily driver, didn't want it too loud or crazy and want it to last for quite a while.

Ended up with a Borla Hush, Helix uppipe, and an EcuTek.

Big thanks to:

Soren (MPJ) for lookin out for me
Preston (Gruppe-S, customer service)
Mike (Gruppe-S, master tuner)

and

As always Adam, Kevin, and Noah for all my other mods. (LIC'd)

Hey what's up I was in the shop while you were getting your stuff done and passed up my dyno session so you could get your car done. The numbers look sweet I know you must of been loving that ride back after the tune. Good luck with the new radiator.

Yeah man, thanks a lot, I really appreciate you given up the spot! It's nice not to be completely stock! Poor Mike stayed till around 8:30 to finish my car (on a Sat.)

Can we see the graph as well? Peak numbers aren't horribly useful without seeing the curves.

Thanks

Any chassis dyno graphs can be manipulated just like road dyno graphs. Its always up to the operator to keep things consistant.
