Turbonetics Open House...
Just got back home from the Turbonetics open house. I would say it was an excellent turnout. Around 45-50 Z's and about the same number of G's showed up. Turbonetics may have kept a more accurate count.
They raffled off a bunch of cool stuff. I didn't win any of the raffles, but I did get a free t-shirt and some good chow. I also learned alot about turbos from the tour of their facility and some of the guest speakers.
I took a bunch of pictures and will probably get around to posting them some time tomorrow. I'll post them in a seperate thread.
Is there anyone else from this forum that was there?

Grand prize was single turbo kit. a few other nice raffle prizes: carbon fiber strut bar, test pipes, alpine head units, ecu chip (forgot which one - worth like $800). Everyone who RSVP got free T-Shirt and stickers and of course free lunch. The meat was soo good - i had a least 6 stacks.

Fun day.
Nice to see all the cars, although I was disappointed, only 2 roadsters (me being one).
I wanted to see spoiler options and what not, oh well...
Whoever had the Silver Z with the Foose wheels... omg those wheels are just awesome...
Funniest moment of the day: Turbonetics guy says "Drive slowly and carefully, be considerate, we've had a few complaint already today" Next thing you hear, VROOOOM, SCREEEECH as people just peel out leaving.
Turbonetics rules! If you guys are reading, thanks for having us!
