Yo Chris do you mind if some of us pay this tune off early? I hate owing people money and I'll be able to pay this off before the tune date.

luckily we have all day to tune 2 evos/day w/ the exception of Saturday where we have 3 evos. But saturday im sure we'll be extending hours. We have plenty of time to tune everyone extensively since we didnt cram a bunch of people in one day like other tuning sessions do. HOWEVER, we do have 2 interested parties that might want to join in late on either fri/sun which MAY make each day a 3 evo day... but I advised them to contact Mellon directly to see if he is willing to adjust (which im sure wont be an issue). Of course they will have to pay the same $50 travel expense fee like we all did. Chris can confirm below details for schedule... then people can reserve the hourly spots etc.

Chris,
What time would you like to start tuning? and how far apart should we spread them out throughout the day? (starting hours etc)

I take my g/f to work on saturdays so I'll be up at 6am. So depending on how early we decide to get started that day since its a 3 evo day, I can show up whenever your ready.

The order doesn't matter to me, as long as the days are distributed somewhat evenly. I'm a fairly early riser, maybe 8am to 9am start time. I figured that once i get done with one car or close to done I'll call the next person in line. It's not uncommon for me to spend 2-4 hours on a car, often longer. I'm a bit of a perfectionist.

hopefully you guys can work out the order/days amongst yourselves and update that first post so everyone is in the loop and knows what to expect.

if at any point someone isn't ready or begins having mechanical issues, we'll have to move on to the next car due to time constraints. However, we'll come back to that car later of course to finish it up. Please please do yourselves a favor and make sure EVERY vac hose is zip tied, fresh plugs gapped to .022 and your wb02 is working. These are the #1 causes of delays during a tune.

I received an email but my reply bounced back so here goes:

Chris,
Is it still available for me & a friend of mine to ba added on the = list for Oct.23 24 25 tune here in Houston? If yes can i be scheduled frida= y night or sunday am.
Thanks,
\\ unknownevo


quite possibly, I think Tom is distributing the load across the days, check with him to make sure we aren't overloaded on one day or the other. I think I can do 3-4 cars per day, it'll be a VERY long day because I don't do rush jobs, only the best for my customers.

what are your cars/mods/boost/octane? got wb02?
