let us know how much of a difference you feel the upgrade made!

I'll be in downtown Austin for brunch from 1130 till probably 130 and then home in northwest Austin not far from 360 and 2222. I can't be away long as I am trying to potty train a puppy (we adopted Grace's 4 month old neice). For Eric and Jyn if you want to arrange a listen let me know and we can work something out.

Would it be cheap/easier to just rent a bay Thursday evening at DIY? How late are they open? I have an OEM+ Audio system I plan on installing, but I'm slow as constipation when I install stuff for the first time.

Took me an entire day to do pads, lines, and a fluid flush. I don't rush anything I haven't done before. Besides, look at the money you save. That's where it matters most!

thursday meeting got rejected, so do you guys wanna go to DIY Thursday at 5 ish? Mine will take about 30 mins. @Jyn I could help install your stuff. you should get one of the flat bays. I've done plenty of audio installs so I'm sure I could offer some guidance or assistance

I'll see what's up. I have the guy from work that installed his OEM+ system helping out. Just wondering how much the bays are otherwise I'll just use my car port at my apt.
