If pitsy will be out of town, he could always leave his DME at the shop, we could tune it, and either send it back to him or leave it there for pickup upon his return. Just a thought..

I will take him off the list unless that works for him.

I heard via PM from Scott1026 and the head. I will be contacting them tomorrow for the billing info. We will not be there on November 15th as we can handle all of the cars on the 13th and 14th.

Thank you for the update Mike.

I've PM'd the remaining folks recently, just to let them know that they need to get in touch with you ASAP, and provide you with all the info that you have requested.

frankzlin79 · 09-27-2009, 10:26 PM

After much research, deliberation, and soul-searching, I'm sorry to say that I can't participate in the group buy at this time. I don't think I'm going to go with a tune anytime soon. Sorry guys.

QTRM3 · 09-28-2009, 04:50 AM

^^^Sorry to hear that Frankzlin79.

BPMSport · 09-28-2009, 02:49 PM

CONFIRMED:
1. Nawaaz / Stage II DYNO Tune / Confirmed Friday November 13th
2. TLud / Stage I DYNO Tune / Confirmed Saturday November 14th
3. QTRM3 / Stage II DYNO Tune / Confirmed Friday November 13th
4. scott1026 / Stage I DYNO Tune / PENDING Saturday November 14th
5. the head / Porsche Flash / Pending PENDING Friday November 13th
6. Ajax-Prime / Stage I DYNO TUNE / Confirmed Friday November 13th

People I have contacted and am waiting to hear back from:
7. TXM32B / Stage II (Dyno?) / Nov.13-14th / Called and sent email on 9/26
8. DevJ - Heard from via PM. Need contact info
9. DaFool / Completely missing in action

Left scott1026 and the head a voice message. Please return my call and provide billing information and I will mark you as confirmed.

Does anyone know whether 8/9/or 10 are participating? Pitsy, can you leave your DME at the shop?

Franklin: With an exhaust system and airfilter on your car, the tune is what you are missing. You would probably have more power with a tune and no exhaust or filter. Let us know if you change your mind. The biggest point of the tune is to make your mods work in harmony - and a stock tune with aftermarket exhaust is doing everything but that.

Mike

DevJ · 09-28-2009, 03:36 PM

I'm out. I won't be able to make it

Mike, can you please PM Frank and pittsy with the same info above that possibly could help them consider joining us?

I would, but I've PM'd them several times, and I'm afraid that they'll get fed up with me bothering them every opportunity. Hope you can understand Mike.

Also, is there anyway you can post up a link & advertise our group buy on the regional section of an AMG forum or any other forums that you may be a sponsor of? Hopefully we can get more interests that way...

Thank you for any help possible sir.

Nawaaz, no need to bombard Frank or pittsy with more PMs on the subject. Frank and I have talked extensively about this, and it's just not something he's ready to do at the moment. If pittsy were really interested, he probably would have already made inquiries regarding alternative arrangements.

Posting on other forums is a good idea if Mike or Jeremy or someone else at PC gets a little bit of free time.

Ok, cool.

I guess we'll just keep our fingers crossed, and hope that we get a few more guys in.............Or we can hope that Mike can work his magic on making this happen for all of us.

frankzlin79 · 09-28-2009, 10:22 PM

If the Groupbuy does happen on November 13 and 14, maybe I can shoot some video of people's after market exhausts on Saturday. Would be great to edit these exhausts into the comparison video and get Nawaaz's Gintanni and QTRM3's Remus Race and any other exhausts that are absent in my video.

I'm very much counting on this group buy working out.

Also, I'd be more than happy to shoot your vid during that weekend.

Left two messages between today and yesterday to get the info in.

the head · 09-29-2009, 12:49 PM

OK talked to Mike and I'm good.

I think it would be really good if you could get these exhaust on video. My vote is for Remus Race

to sound the most loud out of all of them

Hey Nawaaz's I see QTRM3 has jump ship on his AA tune

Oh well but don't worry I see I might have to Drive up to DFW and pick up the slack

Nawaaz · 09-30-2009, 01:25 PM

^ You wanna join our group buy Shady?? It'll be held on Nov.13 & 14th, so you'll be back in the States by then....

What do you say my man?

DaFool · 09-30-2009, 04:40 PM

Guys, sorry to be MIA. Been slammed and just had light board reading here and there.

We just got some major work in and I have zero idea of my availability. I can't commit at this time, sorry =/

QTRM3 · 09-30-2009, 10:30 PM

Off Topic: AA offer free upgrade for there software to the guys in Florida and when I PM'd Omar he did not reapply and today I see an offer for there new upgrade which they charge the other $$.

Sorry but can not hold it any more

I have to tell some one.

Nawaaz · 09-30-2009, 10:34 PM

^ Well you made the right move to get dyno tuned by Powerchip.

We need everyone's help to keep spreading the word on this group buy, so we can get some more guys comitted.

QTRM3 · 09-30-2009, 10:58 PM

If I have to pay for another tune upgrade I will rather do with the dyno tune.

BPMSport · 10-01-2009, 01:52 AM

I believe Tinpot is in guys (provided that I can get him in there to have the rest of his exhaust system installed there)
