I'll be there with the rest of the Texas A&M Diesel Unlimited Club, it would be sweet if I could get one before then.

I'll try to call Misty in the morning as well..

Thanks
We actually talked about trying to get you to come here since you were so close. That way we can help you install it, get it on the road and make sure we do not have any goofy issues while you are here. It is easy to make adjustments are changes while you are at my facility.

So if you can do that please let me know and we are happy to get it on that way. It is sitting in a box waiting on you right now.

We are finally starting to get them out pretty quickly. WE have a good handful more going out tomorrow as well.

Not that I pick favorites but, since this has been a crummy deal for everyone so far, I am at least trying to get stuff to the guys that have an event coming up. This way they can get it on, get used to it and give me some feedback in the event I need to make some changes for their event.

So, for those of you that are mentioning an event I am putting you in a date order of your event and trying to get it there with enough time to spare for you to play with it.

Remember, if I do you a favor and get you one for an event you have to let us know how it goes. Don't get one and dissappear. Even if it is not good we need feedback, how can we fix it, change it or alter it if we don't know what is going on???

So, you are not bugging me or anyone else here if you need to call, email or post something. We need to know. We want ALL (that is every single one of you) to be happy at the end. I know that is probably impossible but, that is the goal.

If I can convince you that 2500 miles in 10 days weighing 22,000 lbs is an event then I have one starting this weekend!

Can/Will you try out some defueling for me? Are you taking a laptop by chance?

What temp would you want default set at?

Oh, if I set the turbo timer how long would you want to let it run?

I might have egt turbo timing as well, not sure which I want to test, what egt would you want shutdown at?

Yes, I would love to have defueling enabled! I am probably overly cautious but I generally start backing out or down shift around 1150 pre turbo. Is that a realistic defueling range for me?

I will have a laptop on the trip but I can't guarantee that I will have internet access.

Edit:
I usually shut it down at 300*.

As far as time goes, it usually takes me long enough to get parked that my temps are cooling way down so it doesn't take long to reach 300*. I don't know what a realistic time would be; 1 min, 2 min?

1150 is WAY to early. I would be at 1250-1350.

So, let me just put it at 1250.

Will you be accessible by telephone tomorrow with the number we have for you? If not, PM me your number and we will call you.

I understand what you saying on EGT's so 1250 sounds good.

The number you have should be my cell so I will keep it with me all day tomorrow. I will PM you just in case.

Assuming everything falls into place I guess the next challenge will be getting the box to McKinney with ample time remaining to complete the install before Saturday morning.

I am hoping to get mine in time for the Fall Brawl October 20th and 21st, so I can put it on the dyno and see how it does.
