Any takers for a Eurocharged and ASP Dyno/Tune day in the Bay area ?

After talking to Jerry last week, we came to a conclusion to plan for a dyno/tune day in the Bay area. We have not yet planned the official day or the location of this event, since we don't have a head count yet. Please let me know if you are interested or have any questions so we can get the ball rolling on this.
Thanks again
Vlad

Great to hear from everyone, I also got 4-5 personal friends that are interested (sl65,cl55,S63, BMW B7 alpina, and hopefully a lambo) so I will talk to Jerry tomorrow and start planning a date. I will keep everyone posted!

If Jerry's gonna be doing the tuning, I'll be down for a retune depending on day/Time of course.

I have a better idea, you guys should come to Famoso this year. This would be a great opportunity to get some of the tuners all in one gathering. Nothing better than testing and tuning during a big track event....how much fun would that be!!!!

It would give most of the guys here an opportunity to get proven track numbers with before and after results.

Either way, if you guys plan on attending Sac I hope you wouldn't mind me participating in the fun. I don't have any plans on getting tunes but always love the opportunity to run against fast cars!

Sorry I've been really busy at the shop and didn't have time to reply unfortunately. A track day sounds great but unfortunately the weather has been unpredictable, as soon as the weather permits however I will have no problem to schedule a actual track day since my friends rent out a track at least 6-8 times a year. I'll leave this idea afloat for now and hopefully post another thread for a bay area track meet as soon as weather permits. I am narrowing down the dyno spots and hopefully will get a date within the next two days. Also Jerry will start taking deposits for dyno spots as soon as the date is set.

Ok so finally got a date December 4th at Ditos Motors in South San Francisco if this works for everyone, let us know ASAP so we can book the dyno and Jerry can book his ticket. This will be a one day ONLY event so reserve your spot asap as they will fill fast. So far 4 cars are signed up an SL65, Lambo, M5, e55 so at max we have 10 spots still open that will fill fast. If you want to reserve your spot please pm me or Jerry so you can leave a deposit for the spots.
Thanks

BTW thanks Vlad for the great work this last week on my W212 HID conversion installation and installing the LED's in parking lights as well as the implementation of the hockey stick MB LED's replacing the round halogen fog and DRL's (it was a complex install)!

Keep me posted on the tuning day.

We will be pushing back the dyno day to later this month or January TBA, unfortunately we did not secure enough deposits to have a full day of tunning as was agreed upon with the dyno shop. We had 7 cars on the deposit list with two of them falling of the list due to one of the cars being crashed into and the other blowing his transmission. Jerry and I will keep everyone posted as soon !!! So to anyone that is interested in a tune or even a full packages with cooler and pullies please PM me or Jerry so we can make this Bay Area Tune day happen.
Thanks
Vlad

I could certainly make it to Atlanta for a tune. I know of 2-3 others in TN that have expressed interest in other posts.

Sorry to hear that, I hope no one got hurt.

So are you guys requiring a stage 1 upgrade (pulley + dyno tune) or is it just a tune?

We are not requiring a stage one upgrade at all just saying for people that are interested its definitely an option before the dyno day. Fortunately no one got hurt except my buddies pocket, fixing his k8 sl55 trany. Both my car that got hit and also y buddies should be up and running in the next few weeks so we will be back on track with a bay area dyno tunning!!!!!! And again we will be running special pricing for this event pm me for the specials. Thanks
