Well, the guy in Socal who tuned my car put it plainly: you drive on the road daily, not on the dyno. Hence, tuning my car using real world applications only makes sense. Besides, it he charged me a third less than others that have to pay for a dyno, shop rent, etc... This guy was a genius too; he's a professor @ UCLA who part of the SCCA Circuit. He Races on the weekends and when he's not teaching. He also owns a Evo VIII and a Nissan SE-R race car. Therefore, I know he's not tuning for the $$$; he's tuning because he was tired of other tuners ripping customers off and not being able to produce a good/safe tune for them.

^^I have a feeling Bobby's asking because you won't be able to tune the car w/out a wideband and we normally use the dyno's wideband.
So is leaving from Brier Creek at 11:30 on Sunday ok with everyone? We can just meet up in the parking lot in front of Target that's normally empty.

Congrats! It's black...correct? That will be just like the one I had
I actually worked for Mitsu's ad agency in 2002-2005. So, I've been to their headquarters more times than I can remember. Made it to MOD every year too. Had some good times. Actually worked on the team that launched the Evo VIII here in the US 
I don't know. Sales always seemed slow with this car...even with all the discounts. I think Leith hasn't had one because they sold their last one and didn't order any more and there wasn't a 2009 model created.
