Noone has signed up yet.

If this happens it will probably be in March.

not to knock jake or his tuning, but the rumor of me using his maps is completely false as I use my own. I may use one of my maps or parameters from the map where the mods are damn near identical or close but the car is custom tuned from there for your car and its setup.

Well if he told you that via e-mail or verbal then he's lying out his ****, nothing new though.

Not really, he completely fell out of the scene besides the auto-x stuff he does.

My evo's going good, need some final touches here and there....main thing I want is my stock final drive back so I'll be tearing it apart again to send the tranny back to TRE for the change.

I got mine built when the new thing was the 3.84 FD from TRE, before the 4.11 was available as that FD is from HKS Kansai actually. So I'm gonna go back to stock as the thing is just a PIA to even get moving from a stand still.
