I have open dyno time if anyone needs tuning while I am in Texas during this time period.
 
In town now. If anyone has calibration needs contact me. [email protected]
 
As the title states I'll be back over in Houston again for tuning once more in about 1-2 weeks
 
I vote no dinner at the Mexican place again...it cost me a new tire and rim repair.

Ah that's right I forgot about that fun event !
 
Torrie, let me know when you are here and I might want to hire you to show me an oil change for the first time. I have the filter and the oil but it might be good to hire and instructor to show me the ropes for the first one. Not exactly speed demon stuff but it is more on my level of tinkering.

My core is calibration, but time permitting I can help you out with that. Heck I do that job on my GT on ramps on the ground. There is also a good oil change PDF from the service manual in here that outlines the steps. Most time consuming part is removing and reinstalling the screws from the pans.
 
Understood, I am just a neophyte with these cars and don't want to break something made of unobtainium. When you know your schedule, and if you have a little slot for a newby please let me know. My only "speed mod" that is in the future is probably an exhaust and bumper delete but my pennies are all out right now so that is definitely off in the future a bit.
 
No problem, these vehicles are real easy to work on. I will also use this thread to keep my time table updated. When you are ready for more power let me know. I can let you try out one of my custom GT calibrations if you want to. If you like it you can buy it.

When the car is on ramps I don't bother pulling the rear drain plug. It has always been dry and clean. The oil surges forward since the car is tilted.
 
I was going to ask about just having the front elevated on ramps vs. the whole car (flat) on a lift. I imagine it might have something to do with just how high the ramps are so probably good to "calibrate" to your setup.
 
Next week I will be in H town back on the dyno !
 
I am on the ground here if anyone needs anything just get a hold of me !
