    i'll try and make it. i won't have any beef jerky this time. i do design for Kellogg's® now (sorry habit), but maybe i can find some pop-tarts or something to bring. maybe some "Scooby snacks"

    And, you know i'll have a 12pck. of 420 to share.

    Sundays most people seem to have set aside for family time and such.

    OK will anyone be there with OpenECU experience? I just got my cable and want to know some basics like how to download my stock map and how to datalog. Also I want to fix the Open Closed Loop problem that Moose talks about in this forum?

    Do you think we'll have time to do prodrive springs on an 02wrx? A friend of mine is back in atlanta and just got his springs today. Like some one else mentioned, we should be able to hammer a few cars out if we are all working on them.

    Ok well I will be there with my new sways and invidia cat DP from sakari hopefully and cable and maybe a laptop with openECU. I will need help installing and guidence to use openECU. :)

    I can also bring something, donno what would be good. I have a small crockpot (those mini ones) and could make up a good queso dip with some cord chips. But where to plug it in.

    I think I maybe able to make it to this event. I will bring some additional snacks. Would it be a good idea or is it possible to also have a detail guys (fixing dents and scratches) out there as well, since I saw a lot of posting asking for it last couple of weeks?

    Me and my buddy put mines on my car, took a while only due to 2 stubborn bolts......i think you will have time.

    How long does a DP/UP usually take?

    I think a 2.5 block swap might be much. I dunno. It might be a time constraint issue unless you know what you're doing and you have the right tools. Then I've never done one personally.

    I have a 03 subaru baja
    I moved to ga a few months ago.
    I don't know anything about reparing car. can I go to the place and looking for someone who can install for me? what about parts?
    I went to oil change service and did not like their service. they told me I should replace the brake pad and quoted around $620 for front and real brake pad. how does it work? anyone can explain about install day?
