Danalo, I understand your predicament but please can we try and keep this thread on topic? Why would there be an issue with the Exede and the White Rabbit? Good luck with those guys, hope they can help you out
My complaint is only with turbo prices in general... not this particular unit. Garrett has jumped their prices something like 3 times in the last year alone and not just a few bucks each time either.

MZM has little to no experience with the XEDE I'm sure they'll try to get me to ditch it in favor of a PowerFC, which they love heh.

Hey, as usual I keep meaning to come up that way. Now I'm shooting for around the 14th to get some "reflash" numbers at FIS with this turbo... that so many are waiting for. Right now the "White Rabbit" thing has gotten a little crazy. I've got three confirmed installs, with a few more pending all before the 9th tune date in San Antonio. It doesn't sound like a lot, but when your an old fat man the heat really works a number on you

Zues,

I haven't had the pleasure, but if Brad will let you work out of his garage, you're alright in my book.

Are most of the people your doing the installs for going to run any engine management other than reflash?

Brad and I go back... The one I did today (didn't go as planned do to supply issue) will be tuning on an Xede. Next weeks is a Power FC, and the next after that I'm not sure.

I'm setting up how I will be offering them... I've got a few customers I'm moving them with as a trial. It's looking like the ONLY way I will be moving them is as a package installed deal. Last I talked to FP, they were back ordered until some time in July. I've not made further inquiries as I'm still planning how I want to handle it. The local response has been quite interesting indeed!

No worries.. You are welcome to head up on the 2nd to help me move my mess of a garage...seeing how you came up with a fishy sounding excuse when it was time to move out of Gracy Farms.. ... Beer & pizza on me. I am trying to talk Beth into a margarita machine also. I have been meaning to add it to my collection of life’s necessary purchases.



Also, be careful calling yourself an old man.. I am older than you are . Of course, one advantage to being old is that you are financially stable enough to be able to afford installing AC in the garage. My new garage is partially air conditioned and will be 100% by the end of the year. If I were not moving, I'd come down and help out. You'd be amazed at what can be accomplished in a day with two people wrenching.


-Brad

This is referring to my Evo and I'm hoping to hit up MZM on Tuesday of next week for the tune. Right now the car is running with the timing and fuel maps zeroed out and I refuse to go over 4k rpm and 5psi
