We are 2 blocks from Elysian Brew pub. I figure we'll hit that up after the event Saturday night to eat, drink, and be merry.

Shaun: Seems like we're going to be a huge group, better give Elysian a heads up.

Hey Ray: Let me know the story on when coil replacement kits will be available en mass and we can probably get enough interest to make it worthwhile to fly you up for an install day.

I'm thinking we get enough kits pre-purchased for an install day and see if we can get a nitrous install for day two.

How many would you want to do in a day?

The coils would take under an hour Better get a lot of guys lined up

After the first one you could have an assembly line...with guys helping each other out and Charles checking everything......

Bet you could do 20 sets in a day

The mass-installation of the Ignition System idea is a compelling one, though, and for the reasons dannobre stated.

For meets such as this I prefer installs like swaybars, intakes, easy stuff like that.

Let's pencil in something for late March and see what happens.
Okay sounds good.

So we'll offer a 1 day install day for Intakes, Coils, or Swaybars and see what people want. And then see if there any interest in a special install day for 1 person and a nitrous kit or flywheel/clutch swap. I figure we do all the smaller stuff on Saturday and then if someone purchases a nitrous setup or clutch flywheel setup we schedule them for Sunday or even Monday and have you stay an extra day per large project.

hi

I can attest that Charles and Jeff know what they are doing. I am in San Diego and did the So Cal dyno day with them and they both are great. On another note I am in the military and on leave so I will be up that way in a couple days if anyone would like to set up a meet

There's a good chance that I can provide some assistance for this event with installations or what not as well. I accept all kinds of food as bribes!
