Carlos got tuned and put down some good power, can't remember the exact number. Then Rene put down an impressive 634whp and 526tq. The car felt incredible on the drive back to his house. Redline comes up ridiculously fast. Our buddy Enzo had both his evos there to get tuned, but ran into some issues with both. His red evo was previously tuned by a shop in Cali, and they put a lock on his ECU so Lucas couldn't re-tune it. Then his black evo with a 35r and 2.3 stroker had a sensor issue that wouldn't let it go pass 5k rpm. They were trying to sort out both issues and still get it tuned, so hopefully they were successful.

Those are the worst. I tried to leave Reno at like 11 in the morning but the bank was horrible. I ended up getting stuck there not knowing whether they'd give me the loan until much much after they were supposed to close. Finally got on my way at 10pm or so. Made it home by 2.30. And I live in Boulder haha. All I stopped for was gas. Had a few fig newtons and two 5-hour energies. Worst/best drive of my life. Car was sooo loud sitting at over 5k rpms most the time with a catless 3.5" titanium exhaust. No music could be heard at all.

Seriously.. I droned at 3500 the whole way.. and got pulled over at the cali agriculture thing for ALL the **** in the car. Couldn't give me a ticket though, since the car was brand new... and I didn't live there.

I will be here in Vegas till Wed so a road tune could work out depending on the setup. Got
Enzo Red car and Black car both figured and and all fixed up. The black one was no ground to the head. Good thing I have ran into problems like that could have chased my tail for quite awhile with that one.


I was allowed to use DynoJets dyno on Sunday. One time special deal for me since I have a good relationship with Carl down there.

If you are looking for some tune stuff you can call me at 360-901-3112
