We are trying to fly SAM from GTmotorsports up here. So far we have 3 who are down to do it. milou (devil Z), Aaron (Jining), and me (IcedOutIS). He is going to be up here anyway to do the extreme kit for drift office. Is anyone else interrested in doing this? His costs are $1k a day to tune, plus we fly him in here, and pay for hotel stay. Will probably get him for 2-3 days.

 

if he is already flying up here, maybe we can just ask sam if he can just stay for an extra day to tune us. What dyno are you thinking of doing it on? Might be hard to find a load based dyno thats not booked up, Kito has a musting MD-500 pretty damn nice but I am pretty sure its booked at least 3 weeks in advance.

 

he says that he prefers an inertia type (not load) dynojet dyno. Doesn't drift office have their own dyno?

 

Oh really? not load eh interesting, yea I think they do actually they got it not too long ago. Let me give them a ring.

 

I'm in.

1. icedoutis
2. jining
3. Devil Z

 

It wouldnt be for a few weeks right since your car wont be done.

 

told him that...my install starts on the 4th. should only be 3-4 days (hopefully) they have 2 people working on it.

 

Ok well just got off the phone with bob from driftoffice, SAM wont be up for another 3-4 weeks because they had a delay regarding an APS exhaust for the 350z they have there.

Bob is going to give sam a call and give me a call back so i'll let you know whats up.

P.S He told me icedoutis came in and tried to haggle the price down haha

 

of course it's what I do for a living but seriously...he wanted almost 20k to do it...got it done with more stuff for 13k at worldone. He was also booked out for like 3 months

 

Oh really hehe yea they go by the APS suggested install price, since its such a ***** to install. After worldone does yours I dont think they will do it for so cheap lol..

I would do it again for 2k no less

 

by the way, im not sure sam is down to do a marathon tuning session, basically bob said sam wouldnt take too long with the 350z and we could use the rest of the day to tune ours... so if more people want a tune I dont know if thats possible, not sure if sam would even want to tune this many cars offsite, just a heads up.

 

don't know...he said he would be up for it when I talked to him earlier...was gonna ask driftoffice and see if they would let him also work there on sunday as well.

 

cool when did you talk to him?

 

30 mins ago...

 

Sweet... Whats that date?

 

sam doesn't know yet...is waiting to hear from driftoffice...will be at least 2 weeks away...more like 3-4 though. He was already supposed to have tuned their kit

 

Yea they are waiting for that 3" APS exhaust, good for you since your install isnt for another week or so.. looks like ill be running 6psi until then

 

Wow...that works out pretty well! So DO is already paying for his expenses? All you guys have to do is pay for the actual tuning? What does he charge per hour? You figure about 2 hrs max per car, if all he's doing is dyno tuning. I would hope he would offer to do street tuning too?

 

yeah, sounds about right...will try to find out more from him tomorrow...anyone else interrested?

 

I heard he tunes for ~4 hours is that true?
