Well, I have a Euro HFM, X-Brace and Cosmo 3.5 CAI coming in the mail and my M50 Manifold to install still ( still sitting on the fence of which kit I want to do)

Mick (formulaemulatio) has some stuff pertaining to his manifold, asc delete etc.

We are wondering if anyone else out there has mods stacked up that they wanted to install during a tech session or something. let me know if you're interested in partaking and/or know of a good location to do it at.

Ya Ashis and I saw it. What's up?

I can help out as I've done just about everything on these stupid cars at least once.

Hey, how's it going guys. Eddie Nakato and I would be willing to host a tech session here at Adrenaline Racing in Portland if you guys would like to come down. We can supply two racks, two flat stalls and shop air, free of charge. We would be willling to do it on a Saturday (even though we are not open).

If interested, lets start a sign up list and pick a date that works best with all of your schedules.

Tools will not be provided so bring your own. Some exceptions may apply (air-tools etc.) but make those arrangements ahead of time please.

It would be awesome to have everyone at the shop for a tech day! I'll be there all day to help out. Between Brian, Eddie, and myself it should be a productive day for everyone attending.

We'll make sure that the shop cars are there for everyone to see as well. Eddie's Civic HB that stomps everything at the track and my 95 M3 that's soon to stomp his Civic! :evil2 :redspot

So? when is this happening? If it's in Portland, I'll probably attend just to watch (and help if I can)... too risky to mess with my car so far from home :)
but if it's in seattle, i'm down to do my m50 manifold install with you. in addition, i've decided to go with a 3.5" HFM as well.

I would like to watch you guys do the M50 manifold, as I will be doing it soon.

The only thing I need to do it my clutch, but I doubt anybody will want to help with that :(

I appreciate the offer, big time, but Todor is right on the money, Portland is too far away to be tinkering with my car.

Todor, are you going with a kit of some kind? or are you just getting the parts from a hardware store and doing it.

Give me a call at 425.208.6666 and we'll get together tonight or tomorrow.

Hey guys. I understand your thinking in regards to how far away it is from your houses. Just let me know what you would like to do if anyone is still interested. I am sure we can come up with something. Thanks Brian.

Or, how about a BBQ/GT4/Go-Kart get together? The PNW crew has fallen apart lately.

I don't know how much help I would be, but I would interested. I am planning on doing it to my car in the near future, and would like to see how it is done.

Edit: Just noticed you are in Portland, darn.
