I'm going to make a set for myself and install and test them right after I finish dyno'ing stage1v5 and stage2v7. I'm planning on a dyno session for stage 1v5, a dyno session for stage2v7, and a dyno session for stage2v7 with cams.
Let me know when they are ready. I will get the stage 2v7 and the springs, and get cams. Dyno plots would be great as well. Also, what are the prices we are looking at for the cams and will you be testing just intake or both intake and exhaust?

Ah, because I was tired and wasn't thinking?
Go ahead and send them this week and I'll have them back to you ASAP, as I've still got my spare heads sitting at my machinist's shop.

I just like to use the links they give me so it charges my paypal for the shipping and is easy. I suppose i can search out your address, figure out my usps login info, and enter in new shipping info.

Bill,

I refunded your dollar and sent you a bill for a quarter. You marked it as payment for a service or shipping or something; like I said, it has to be marked as for goods for it to give me the link.

Anyway, I took pictures of the springs as I was boxing them up thinking I was going to ship them to Bill this morning. I know everyone likes pictures.

Springs.
Mike, what are the specs of the springs. Load at height?, Coil bound height?

And do they come in any other colours.?

Harvey.

We could probably get them in a nice light pink to match your cams

I believe Bill is going to give you the tension specs at the stock installed height. I will measure the stock installed height as well so we will have verified #'s for that. I believe Bill will be or hopefully already has measured the free travel of these springs at the stock install height. I won't be measuring that. I will measure the free travel at the install height I use.

Lan?
Do you still need someone to guinea pig the new Stage 1 chip? Because if you do, my car will be suitable after all... I got my first stall today, and my second, and third, etc. It happened quite a lot. Guess I'd just never driven in the kind of conditions to trigger it before. Anyway, if you've already got someone else that's cool too. I'll still buy your stuff anyway

Take care over the holidays,

Ron

I've been waiting for a tool I'm borrowing to finish the new stage 1 software so by the time I have it done I will need to imediately release it. Sorry, but the delay was out of my control.
