Jeff I am still on your first map and I was planning on going to a track day Feb 15, would it be a bad idea to track the car with the first map? I the seems to drive very close to stock

If anyone sent files previously and then sent new ones before receiving their next calibration, your follow-up e-mail will be deleted.
In other words, if you are already in the queue and received a confirmation previously, any additional info sent is automatically sent into the recycle bin.
I get too many "is it soup yet?" requests 4 hours after a confirmation is sent to deal with "follow-ups".
I have been traveling and have a sh*t-load of stuff going on right now. Sorry. I will get to EVERYBODY in the order received.
Thanks.

Jeff,
My GReddy turbo is showing signs of crapping out...and I may be getting the bullseye power upgrade, due to time constraints....and plus I don't like the idea of re-installing the stock GReddy unit....is this going to affect my tuning? Will I have to start over the calibration process? The only thing I will be changing is the turbo, not injectors or anything. Thanks!
edit: I'm not sure if it's the bullseye power one or not, but here is the specs....they rebuild the greddy itself:

Well since the flow changes I am sure the AFR's will change too. So if you have your AFR's tuned for the greddy setup then you will probably need to go a bit richer since it will flow more air.

I just talked to the guy from tim's turbo's and it sounds like a pretty good deal. Cost is about 650 and greatly improves the greddy, and he said he will stand behind the work...so if it blows out in 12K he would fix it for free.

Huh, sounds like a pretty decent price... but does it dramatically change the flow of the turbo from the GReddy kit and help with the lubrication problems and frequent failures? It seems like it might not be too bad in the short term at least. You are probably better off doing that for the moment than getting another unmodified GReddy turbo or getting in line for a long wait for the 3071R MM upgrade.

Not trying to be a pain, but I emailed you last week about my map... just wondering if my request was lost again or filtered out because when we were last talking about it you said you were going to be working on it that night and that was the week before last... I'm just wanting to make sure that it wasn't lost or deleted.

I probably won't bother with the 3071...my car isn't a daily driver anyways and Tim told me he would stand behind his product. No worries for me. He had some interesting things to say about putting a ball bearing turbo down there....wish I could remember exactly, but I will go with it for now. Don't mind being the guinea pig on this one.
