Actually, the date may just get pushed back a week, depending on how many people will still be able to make it. My friend w/ the SC2 won't be able to make it on the weekend of the 13th, so I'm tryin to see how many people will still be able to make it if it's pushed back a week. And how many of your friends will you be bringing?

I'll be down, depending on how much dynotime and price.

Aslo, is it a Dynojet?

Good. Wideband o2, etc?

I'm asking because naturally I am going to go to where I can get the best rate.

Still waiting on a price.

Ok, official date is the 20th. If you're interested, give me confirmation by 10:00AM tomorrow or you will not be included in the official count for pricing. Hoping for a good turnout guys. As of right now, Blurvision and Blaise are currently listed as questionable. I need official confirmations from you two and anyone else that is interested and going to be in attendance so I can get accurate pricing. Please PM your official confirmation.

well i think a lot of people would be interested, depending on price. its tough to commit to something when you dont know how much it will cost. i think your best bet is to find out pricing if: 5-6 people, 7-8 people, etc etc. and then you'll get some more positive responses.

I don't mean to rain on the parade or anything, but if you're just looking for the best rate and a dyno w/a WB then Precision isn't the best choice. Other than being local, which is awesome. I've yet to see a dyno come close to the prices that Xotic charges. They run a Dynojet w/a sniffer WB. Keep in mind, if you don't have a bung already welded in you're gonna have to pay for that too at Precision.

I tried to set one up @ PDT and everyone was whining about paying $50 vs. $40 at Xotic so it never happened. Xotic is far, so I'm not seeing that as a deal...gas and tolls = more than $10.

Anyway, if you're looking for numbers to brag about, prepare to be disappointed. This is a dyno made for people who aren't afraid of the truth.

haha, so true. I love seeing the confused look on people's faces after using a dynojet then hopping on a mustang

OT: IMPREZv, know where you can buy that sticker? Your avatar. I found them once and haven't been able to since.

To make a definite decision can you tell me what time were were going to meet up. It is a week day.
I can hopefully find 2-3 friends but you all know how people like to back out

Yeah...well, dynos are tuning tools and aren't meant to determine whose car is faster. I'll be happier with a properly tuned car with lower numbers than one that was tuned with unrealistic loads and an exaggerated dyno chart.

I dunno where the sticker is sold...I just found the image in someone's gallery and borrowed it.

BTW...put me on the list if you get it for $50-60

You are totally right dude. I send PDT an email requesting prices in a similar manner (I asked for prices w/ 10 and 15 because I already had 4 people that were interested regardless of price and finding 5 more isnt that difficult) earlier in the week and I'm still waiting for a response. I guess I did jump a step or two in the process and will request more detailed pricing information (i.e. 7-8 people, 9-11 people, 12-15 people, run & tune vs. run only). Hey, sorry about all the unnecessary stuff. That's why I like to get big things like this planned far in advance because there is such a thing as human error. Will post pricing info when it's received.

As far as time goes, it will be around 2-3PM because I have an 11AM class and I still need to get home by like 12:30 because I live at Drexel.

keep us posted on the rate and let me know the Zip for the location so I can figure out how far it is from me.

If it works out to be not to far from me, I'll join up but the weekend of the 20th is no good for me.

I'll be hitting up a dyno for a new baseline soon anyways, it wouldn't hurt to hit up one with a few local enthusiasts.

Well, mad hatter, it's in Moorestown, NJ, which is quite a hike from Bethlehem, PA. If you go to their "contact us" page on their site www.precisiondynotuning.com you can just put in your address and a map will be generated between the 2 places.

I haven't heard back from them about the prices yet, so I will be making a phone call tomorrow because I'm not beating around the bush. I'm not going to let this just fall through.
