If there's somone else in the world who looks like me, he's probably already killed himself by now.

Common', you couldn't possibly look worst than me.......I look like a HUGE HAIRY APE!

btw Tom, do you think our group buy will work out?

I think it will, but we need 7 more guys to confirm their spots as of now....

To tell you guys the truth, I think it'll be 50/50 working out on that Group buy. I don't think a lot of guys will commit to it

If you commit, you'll most probably get us pretty damn close to 10, if not 10 exactly.

10 is the magic # of total guys we need in order for us to make this happen.

I'm trying man! I pm'd Mike yesterday and haven't gotten a response from him. It's damn far drive too. I'd have to come home to Durant to get my car then drive all the way to Houston. I'm not even sure whats coming up that weekend. If I have an O-chem test that upcoming Monday there's no way in hell I could make it. So many variables..

I still don't even know how much it's going to cost I'm also not sure why there needs to be 10 people.

Also, if you lose your powerchip tune, then what? Too many questions that I'm unsure about

I emailed Mike right after I found out that you PM'd him. I got an email back from his cell, letting me know that he'll PM you back tomorrow (Monday), since he was out of town at the time being.

Also, Mike will give us a free reflash within the first year, just in case the software gets erased. The standard tune for a basic reflash will be $800 I believe. I believe a dyno tune without a catless exhaust will be $990 + dyno time ($100 or less) if I'm not mistaken.

If by chance, you need any help from me Dev, let me know anytime my friend.

That's not too bad of a price. Now if I can only be free that weekend! How far is the drive from your place to Houston?

When my brother lived in Plano, it generally took me about 3.5 hours to get to his house.

Dev,

Mike very recently updated the Powerchip group buy thread, and he has requested your contact info, if you don't mind.

If you have any further questions, I'd call him directly @ (323) 375-4BMW or email him: mike@powerchipgroup.com

Thanks man!

Anyone else interested in the Powerchip Tune Group Buy?

We need at least a few more folks in order to make the event happen.

Here's the link just in case: http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthr...297678&page=11

Wow, John, looks like you all had a pretty rowdy weekend. The engine in the Rahal Letterman 90 car in the second pic looks insane. More Pics!
