I'm all for this.
San Jose is perfect, but I'll go anywhere. I might even drive out - depends on prices/timing/etc.
You guys should designate/elect one person to organize the event Secure a location, convince them to give you a "bulk" rate on the dyno - $600 - $800 for an 8 hour session is typical - and then get people to commit to it by paying at least a $50 deposit for their slot.
If you get 10 people to commit, you are only talking $60 to $80 each for the dyno time (and that would get them 1/2 hour or more each, which is plenty for a bunch of pulls).
Then, assuming all 10 are MazdaManiac AccessPORT customers, it would only be another $60 each for the tuning (which is 80% off my normal rate).
That is $120 to $150 for custom tuning.
To put that into perspective, we had a dyno day down here for the RX-7 guys with a well-known tuner and a similar schedule. Each shelled out about $450 to get tuned.
Make it happen!

more I think about it, as long as the price is not drastically different from the socal one, I'll definitely be there. I've been looking for a chance to put the 8 on a dyno.

I say, find a shop, set a date and get everyone to work around that date. It's too hard to accommodate 10-15 people. Concord sounds good, I might I a friend with a shop in Alameda, I'll get some info if that's "central" enough for everyone.

I'm out.
Lazybow, I'll sell you mine if you're interested. I don't want to deal with the hassle with it. I should have just bought sway bars.
