That's the problem. Mike wasn't coming back from vacation until today. He said he'll be working on Franks cars swapping stuff around and wasn't sure how long it would take. Just waiting on him for status. Mike and I were talking about Jestr coming down and the possibility of getting stuff all together in time.

Can't get Buschur's do to the work since Dan's having an operation and said to call him towards the end of the month. At which point he had 3 engines to build.

Also, I don't have the test pipe/muffler yet.

Just go down and kick him in the ***, and have him take care of the cams. We could even do those if necessary. The rest we can take care of in my parents garage, it wouldn't be tough at all. Let me know how it develops and what I can do to help. I just really wanted to get these last few parts on the car, have two good quality tunes on E-85 and 93, and be done with it for a while. Getting sick of the down time real fast. If it keeps up at this pace, I might just sell the damn thing because its becoming more of a burden than its worth.

I'll keep that in mind. I had Dan order it and I believe he already has it. I'd feel like a dick having him order it and then not getting it from him.

thanks

I prefer not to kick his *** while he's still working on it.
I hear you regarding down time. SUCKS!!!!

If you decide to sell your car, let me buy my hood back.

One more thing, I just realized this now. The car was tuned great by Nate and Travis. I have 0 complaints with their tune, and they really poured a ton of time into the car (a lot of it was for free, too). It runs great and is making amazing power.

I have just chosen to add a few things to it (fuel system upgrades) hotside and O2 upgrades, a new stiffer WGA and new complete turbo, as well as it hasn't been tuned for the 4" FMIC. So, Mike said Jestr was coming up (or trying to) and I figured I would see what the re-tune by him was like.

So, I just wanted to clear that up, as I don't want to offend Trav (or Nate if he is on here) by going somewhere else after all their hard work. I am happy with how the car turned out, but have just chosen to add a few things and that is the reason for the re-tune.

Don't do it. You will miss it in a month or two.

Nate tuned it not me.......don't worry about offending me, I just helped get some of the ecu mods setup.
