For real. Hey, is that RRev place any good? Can they tune the VPro? (just curious).

I am fairly certain you have to be a recognized FCON dealer to be able to sell and tune the unit.

Even if they "could", I wouldn't trust my car to anything less than an expert...know what I mean?

Yeah I get you. They're a Pro dealer though, which is why I asked.

Interesting, I did not realize that...my bad.

Personally, there are some great vendors on these boards that are known for their reputable tuning skills on the VQ platform. That is why I decided to head down and let Sam/GTM man the controls for my tuning needs...if you aren't doing anything at the end of the month, you should head down with us. If nothing else, it would be fun to get away and check out the GTM facility...

Oh I'm going there, although whether I'm going at the same time as you guys is the question.

Later

SVRT Solid Motor Mounts getting prepped for installation...



All you losers that run HP will bow to me and my SP "Scott Power"...by my calculations one SP equals around 750WHP. Of course, you will have to put up with the consistent whining noise coming from your engine compartment! LOL

Keith,
Can't wait to see this thing come together. Is it going to be done in time for the West Coast Z meet in Orange? What's left? You're running South on the Utec, then switching to the F-Con at GT, right?

How are you going to get through DEQ with the F-Con? I know you must have a plan. C'mon, share........

I've collected most of my parts.
However, I've only been home for 5 days in the last 6 weeks.
I never had time to drop it off...and Scott said he was committed to
a construction project full time from late May to September....guess I
will have to wait.

Let us know what the results are!!
