Wish I coulda made it tonight guys, sounds like it was fun.

I am having miles tune my car sometime in the next month, so if u all are doing a dyno day and if i could get it tuned then, id just wait

 

yeah It was awesome to see you all. Dang my foot hurts as f... shifting was torture arriving home! :/

 

Or we can do both weeks

 

Sorry bro. A dyno day and a ProTune are a bit different. Dyno days are basically for show of horsepower/torque (and in my case, how well I tuned my own car) where as a ProTune is a tune day for your car. This event (and pricing) are for a dyno day only. None of us will be receiving a ProTune. You can (by all means) pay for the ProTune during the event, but you must coordinate that with Miles.

If you have problems with your current tune, you should be consulting a tuner asap anyways.

Great turn out. It was good seen new faces. I hope u guys can come oit again. Also, cris, im ok postponing the drive to the weekend of the 13th. I rather have more people joining the cruise than going on a cruise with not enough people.
Ill be down attending the FLi event as well, i jst wont be having my car to run as im stock besides the AP. Not worth it for me but ill be super down for attending the event for sure.
For the route to clear lake, we will take hwy29 towards calistoga, then up towards lower lake. Than we can head to hwy175, nd that will drop us off at hopemonk. Nd for lunch, shokowa casino has a bad a$$ lunch buffet. Nd then we can hit 101 south. We can meet up at the Starbucks on santa rosa ave, where we met up for the skaggs rd cruise a few months ago at 1030am. Gor this cruise, expect it to be as lomg as the skaggs rd cruise, so a good 4-5hr drive total. We can stop by a couple spots, take some.sweet pics, nd keep moving. If this sounds like a plan, lets postpone the cruise to the 14th of july, so we can have all of us go. I hope this works for all of u. Lmk what u guys think.

Also, Ben, Chris, nice mini cruise after the meet. .d Ben, thanks for giving me a ride in ir.car today. Ur car hawls a$$ dude!

 

Great input, Jose! We will postpone the drive until the 14th of July due to other members having plans for the 4th of July weekend. I like the drive details for Lower Lake, so I think we should do that drive for the July monthly drive (if no one disagrees, that is).

Ben, here is some reading for you, as well as anyone else interested in twin scroll or equal-length headers as Ben and I are (BTW, I had the Invidia/Tomei setup first!).

I would be down for a dyno day and I will hopefully be home a couple days after this next drive is done. After I get some time at home up in Tahoe, Ill be down for more meets and drives.

 

I was so sure the meets at Vintage Oaks were on the second saturday of every month. Now I am confused. Can someone clear up the dates and times for me. Thanks so much!

 

The best way to really be clear bout the meet, is to check the thread consistanyl due to changes. But meets at vintage oaks will be at 7pm

 

Just get the phone app and subscrib to the thread

 

Yea, good idea Stephen, only case sometimes there are last minute changes.

 

So it sounds like were doing the drive sunday the 14th, but I already got sunday the 7th off.
So I guess ill be installing/doing a thousand things on my wagon next sunday, if anyone wants to help ill buy beer!

Putting on new bumpers
Downpipe, upipe
Trailer hitch
120k service, changing every fluid, breaks, filters, gaskets ect
Spark plugs
Starter
Fuel pump
And a bunch of other fun things I can't think of off the top of my head.

Highly doubt ill be able to do it in 1 day, but it shall be fun

 

Thanks for the info. It's not that I have a problem with my current tune, it's more the fact that my setup is slightly frankenstein-ish. I have a full STi swap, but I didn't do the drive-by-wire conversion because frankly there are too many rattles as it is inside and taking apart the dash and redoing the whole freakin' wiring harness (a pain in the *** in itself) would only add to the existing acoustic annoyances. So i'm running the non-STi intake manifold (virtually the same as the STi, but not red and with a non ecu controlled throttle plate), and therefore controlling the STi drivetrain with the non STi ECU.

Because of this, I have been using the Cobb AP OTS maps for the 2.0L and not the 2.5L. It's still a beast, but there are times where the map has its limitations. I have a Perrin Inlet Hose I want to put on, but I fear that upgrade will totally fuçk the performance, so i'm waiting until I have the time and money to get a proper tune for all my goodies.

 

Totally forgot it was a holiday weekend. Watch out for the next week or so, the chp officer said they will be out in force. Saw another four people pulled over on the way home within a mile stretch on the 1.

 

Aww dude, how fast were u going?
