Feeler: Dyno Tuning Session via Jamesm @ HRI tuning

A few of us are interested in flying Jamesm of HRI tuning over to the bay area for some real time dyno tuning action. The facility is still TBD as well as the date.

Wanting to get a feel for how many people would be interested in booking time with him.

So far he has been fantastic to work with remotely and I can't wait to see what he can do in person.

@jamesm @pmccut @mkivsoopra

I'll let him chime in here about his credentials and his preferred programs to tune with.

Which program does he tune with?

What are some of his notable tunes on the fa20 platform?

Honestly, i haven't heard one way or the other about this tuner.

EcuTek.

Check out the 'reviews' section on his FB page - https://www.facebook.com/hrituning/reviews

He's been active in the tuning section providing helpful webcasts and general help. You'll get an unlocked tune you can tweak yourself I'd much prefer to get a stable tune then learn enough to smooth it out from street logging.

Well then... you should start saving up. I'm sure he's going to be coming to the Bay Area more than once... Isn't that right @jamesm? Haha

Thanks Ed! I used to read nasioc daily and see your posts, so I'd definitely like to check out your facility.

We just need to figure out if anyone else is interested, or if it'll just be @sw20kosh and I.

@sw20kosh and @jamesm - what are you schedules like? I'm fine with weekday, weekend, whatever. Let's schedule this soon!

I'd have to schedule a ways out... as it's on the complete other side of the country from me . Also we'd need to get enough cars together to make it worth the trip... airfare alone is going to take a few to recoup lol. I have the flexibility to get some vaca time and head out there if we can get it all in place with probably 3 weeks to a month's notice.

I'm in the market for a tune, probably won't pull the trigger until the fall.
