I am not registered as i work for a vendor "totallyauto" but I will have my crossfire there.
I am also judging the SME competition on Saturday.
I will definitely find time to come by as I would like to see some of you I know and meet some new people.
How about joining us for dinner?

Tony normally charges $350 for the tune. But since we have 5, he's offering 10% off, which is $315 per tune.

Thanks Tony!

IF you are going to ever want a tune in the future and are planning on being at Carlisle, get it now. We have started using a different tuner and prices have gone up (check the website) to $400 for the flash and $800 for the custom. Also we will probably be phasing out the flash tune in our performance packages as of July 1st.

The original price I quoted was with our first tuner and cheaper prices, but I'm still honoring it.

Can't wait to meet everyone there.

Anthony

The benefits we are seeing with the custom tune are amazing and far outweigh the price difference. It's a better part throttle map vs just a wot one. Gas mileage is improved, throttle response, and the TQ and HP gain, when added to the larger injectors, is 20% more.

Talk to some of our customers who have gotten the custom tune and they can give you their views on it.

I know most of you are staying at the Country Inn. Anyone else staying somewhere else? Can you tell me if I-283 and Lindle Rd is close to the Country Inn an or the event?

Is the Best Western near the Country Inn?

The link was to take you to directions from I-283 and Lindel Rd to the Country Inn but didn't work.
Just click get directions and put in I-283, Lindel Rd and you will see how close they are.

Fp I am staying about 10 miles north of you on N. Front st. which is off of 81. That is about 3/4 to 1 hr away from the carlisle fairgrounds depending on traffic and the route you take. We jump on 81 and head down to carlisle early as there is a great breakfast place in Carlisle just past the road to the show in the center of town. This restaurant gives a discount to show goers.

Updated ECU Tune List:
1. acrispy1
2. ichon
3. FP
4. crossfirefun
5. stryfox

I need to drop out of the ECU tune group, thankfully stryfox jumped in, so there's still 5.
