Hey Jay,

Read the link (actually joined up), no pricing info evident. Had a real good time at the last dyno day, if any of you TGO guys are just lurking, you should consider speaking up and attending. Good times and good info.

Dave

i think owen was talking similar pricing to the thirdgen one whatever that rate was 40-45 for 3 pulls and 25 for wideband if we have to weld in a bung, if we dont then 15

It's posted permanently in the "Private Installers Index" that is stickied at the top of the page:

Owen
ARD--Advanced Racing Dynamics
5023 Addicks Satsuma rd, Suite b,
Houston, Texas, 77084
832-593-9140


From I-10 and highway 6, go north past Keith Harrow till you reach Addicks Satsuma. Take a right turn and go about 100 yards down, and you will see the sign and it is located on the left in a business park.

Im going to try and be there. I installed the exaust cutout after the last one. Also Id like to try and adjust my fuel pressure with the adjustable fuel pressure regulator since I was running rich before. I have not done the tuning that Owen suggested would help my car so much. Just havent had the time or money to go and get Mike there at the same time. I suppose this day would not be ideal since there may be a lot of cars and tuning would take up a lot of time, right?

Also, I cant really stay the whole day. Maybe I will call and see when I could be fit in.

Also I really need to get the leak fixed on my TH350 where the dip stick goes into it. The bitewads who installed the transmission really screwed that up and hit is very hard to get to without a lift.

Jay,

What kind of turnout are you expecting? Looks like a few from H-town, plus Larry from here? If in town I'll show, I want to see Daniel's car. Won't run though, no changes since last time.

I'll be there to spectate / socialize.

Jay, please pass to Owen I'm ready to commit to a replacement for my old L98.

Maybe we can discuss it a little at Dyno Day, a little more at Fall Brawl, then another discussion or two with full comittment by New Years. I expect the old bird to be FLYING by Spring Fling!
