COMPRESSION TESTS
As a bonus, I am offering FREE COMPRESSION TESTS to everyone who signs up for dyno+tune.
Compression tests will also be available for people who don't wish to get tuned. If you want to do a dyno only, or just drop by to watch and hang out, you can still get a compression test for $40. This will help raise funds to cover any extra spending we may need to do if we don't fill all the slots.
1. wcs (free)
2. DarkBrew (free)
3. shaojie1984 (free)
4. djvinniev77 (free)
5. Chad D. (free)
6. RotorWheeee (free)
AFTER-PARTY
We're all going for beers and food afterward at the Mill St. Brew Pub (directions). This is open to EVERYONE even if you don't come for the dyno day. We will head there whenever dyno tuning is done, this will depend on how many people sign up in the end.
Please RSVP so that I can make a reservation.

Bump... any more interest?
Come on people don't be cheap!

OK guys I think we have more than enough people to get the ball rolling.
I've been looking at it and we can easily do this for cheap. For about $460 we can get Jeff a flight right into TO (well, Mississaugua) or if the date we settle on has bad prices we can do Buffalo for less and someone can go pick him up. Then hotel for a few days shouldn't be too bad. I expect a grand total of no more than $100 per person to split the travel costs (probably around $75-$80) which is less than last year!
Right now I am thinking July 10th or 17th. Jeff, do you want to comment on your availability?
Thanks all!

Added 2 more people to the interest list.
I found a nice spot to dyno but it's a tad pricey, $150/hour (Dasilva Racing). I will keep looking but everyone please be ready to send me a deposit very soon for the dyno and Jeff's travel costs.
If anyone is interested in a dyno only (no tuning) please post your interest as well!

Your best deal is to buy it from Jeff @ www.mazdamaniac.com, this way you save $200 on the tuning.

How much for tune/dyno only? I purchased the MM Cobb back in 2008 and got tuned...Just wondering if there are any new updated maps for the normal NA tune?
Thanks Jeff.

Kafka: I'm pretty sure once the midpipe is on and I get tuned I will be over 200, despite the back that I got rid of my exhaust. Should be over 210 once the BHR exhaust hits the market
. Then again I don't really care much about the number, a well tuned ride is most important.
Tune can be purchased online from Jeff @ Mazdamaniac.com, look for the (MazdaManiac Custom Calibration ServiceŽ) at the bottom of the page.
EDIT: See post #1 -- Jeff is giving $100 off for this event!
I will have costs for you guys very very soon, probably today. I nailed down a great dyno spot and I'm working out the rest of the details with Jeff.
