That is true. We'll see. As of right now I don't want to be held up to it, but if I feel lucky and there's an open spot, I'll give it a whirl.

I'll be up there fairly early. I like to get to places really early.

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Yeah I know how that goes. Slow progress on all of our cars, just to much customer stuff to do.

I might be on the rollers saturday. If not, no biggy.

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

As in the past, Cars owned by performance based shop employees or owners aren't abel to take home the Trophies. Jet and Steve woudl still be allowed, but the DB, MAP, and LSE cars would all be out of the running. As with last year, the sponsors where all good with this, as the events is for the members.

The Pull off trophies though are game for everyone. I want to see even more teams this year for the pull off. Maybe this year we pull a Yacht?

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Why are Jet and Steve allowed but not shop employees? Jet has his business and so does Steve- both auto sales and engine building now. Just curious how that works. If it was a shop car, where mutliple people own it I can see them not being able to win, but I think individuals own them all.

True, Kyle's talon is just that, Kyle's lol.

Quit stirring shit up, this is what we did last year as well. I don't consider SGH or Jet's Customs the same as MAP, DB, or LSE. But if we changed it one way over the other I would rather see it be changed to all cars related to sponsors are not eligable for the trohpy. This is for the members of the site remember.

But maybe a new tradition needs to start. I a rolling Trophie or Plaque to hang for the Big Dog Sponsor award. Most HP from a sponsors car takes it home, and it get's defneded at the next dyno event. Might be kinda cool.

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Im not trying to stir any "shit" up. It was a legit question, but whatever.

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Then I want my DB trophy, who has it? Cough it up! LOL.

These events are for the members, not the shops. Now Justin and Steve are "shop" owners but it is on a different scale. They do not have a dyno in their backyard as the rest of us do.
If we outlawed it for anyone that works on any other members cars, then the TKR guys as well as the guys from Winona, and a few other scattered members would be ineligible.

I own my car, but I consider it a shop effort. I use shop assets to get it done, therefore I have an advantage (and curse) compared to other members of this forum.

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Well this is a huge blow for me. My parents, as of right now, won't let me take my car up there for several issues. Mainly because it's under my dad's name untill I graduate, and I'm on their insurance plan.

It pisses me off, but what am I suppose to do. I'll talk to em tonight about it again, but it looks like I might end up going in my g/f's grand am. :angryfire:

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

That'll be my number to beat then Scheides. I made 284 last time on the dyno, so hopefully I can squeeze out a little more and top you! I just realised today that my Forge Unos MBC has the soft spring in it, and isn't allowing me to boost past 20psi, and I lost the stiff spring. So I put in a cheapy one I had laying around, and for a $15 ebay thing, it's performing quite well, and I'm at a steady 24psi right now. Will be gradually bumping it up over the next couple days.

And sure I'll be the 11AM man. I should be there early enough.

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Myself and Katelyn will be there at 10am-ish. If you guys need help setting up, let me know in a PM.

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Anyone want to supply a Mitsu for the pull off? Maybe something with a tow hook already? We can do EVOs or a 3S this year. :D

And for those interested in the draft, I'll have my Sirius going through the firts round and I'll update another white board as well. LOL

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Wow, it might be a full day of Mitsu's!!

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

***FIRST PAGE UPDATED W/ *ROUGH* SCHEDULE AND PRIZES****

Nice! With more boost on E85 you should be able to break my numbers brandon. I think my car is actually making *slightly* more than that now as I'm running a little more boost than when it was on the dyno that time

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Well, count me out. My wife's uncle decided to kick the bucket, so we're headed to Sioux Falls for the funeral on Saturday. My spot is officially open. And my car is even ready for once. Piss.

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Steve, NOOOOOOO!!!!! I want to hear that turbo spool again SOOOO bad!!!

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

That sucks Steve, I wanted to see your car on the dyno! I guess that leaves the trophy open for a few people now.

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Sorry to hear that Steve, my condolences to your family.

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

You can pull boostcreep off the list, didn't even realize he was on there.
That car was dead months ago.

Pianomans stealth is here in the shop, won't be dynoing that one as well, pull him off.

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Nope!! You have to get both of them running by saturday! :D

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

God please kill me now.

I am looking like a 20% chance I'll get mine running for saturday.
You expect me to resurrect a crushed car and fix a trans I dont' have parts for?

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Yes.

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Quit whining and get to work, slave boy!

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Any room left at 3-4pm?

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

For what? It's always possible based on how the day go. I'd say it would be best to just show up, hang out, and see what we can do.

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Updated. If anyone wants a more specific time, or can only be there for a while, just post here by tonight or come see me when you get there, we'll try and fit everyone in! WOOHOO!!

Also, sunny skies for tomorrow, high of 72, it's gonna be niiiiccce!

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Do you need any of us to bring anything? Some lawn chairs or anything like that?

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

YES bring lawn chairs, if anyone has a pop-up tent that'd be awesome! We have two, but the more the merrier. Chairs will be a huge plus; I always bring 4, and I never get to sit in them b/c someone else is :D

Also if anyone has a fold-out table that would fit in their car that'd be cool, but we have two of those already as well.

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Definatly suggest people bring along some chairs if they would like.

We'd also like everyone to take it easy with driving in the parking lot, and once you get there, feel free to drive around the back of the building to get familiar with the layout and where you will be entering the shop from.

As always lets keep the area clean and be carefull of the customer cars. I can't fuck'n wait for tomorrow!

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

I have a pop-up I can bring after I get done with the suspention install on a vw in the morring

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

I'll bring 2 camping chairs.

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

what time everyone going there tomorrow? I'm thinking 10 am might be a bit early, as I stated earlier. I'm jsut trying to guage when to show up.

-A. Swift

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

I'll be there around 9:30 setting up, first car is on the rollers at 10:30 (Swanny) and Halon's car is on at 11. Lots of cars to dyno so we'll get going as soon as we can!

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

I'll be there around 2 or 3 pm. ;)

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

I'll try to make it if i can get done puting my ACT in my gst before 11:00am, i need to check the new location.

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

I didn't make as much progress with my car today as I had hoped. I am still looking fine for hitting the dyno late afternoon. It just depends on how quick the tune comes around.

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Yeah I'll hopefully be hitting the rollers before 4am.

No sleep saturdays FTW!

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

if you need any help I may be coming super early, I live about 3mins away... I wanna try to get a bunch of video (got my new hd cam a month ago, with no chances to try it out yet lol )

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Looks like we are about 3 hours ahead of you with Kyle's car lol ;) Best of luck!

Chris

Re: MitsuStyle Spring Opener & Dyno Day : Sat, April 28th
 

Ya I lost my overflow reservoir on the freeway tonight. Nothing a gatorade bottle couldn't fix ;). I also had a check engine light come on, and then disappear. No idea. I'm still good for the dyno though. I didn't get the street tuning done that I wanted to, but ah well. We're allowed to make quick minor changes between pulls right?
