I've contacted powerfab for TT installation, tuning and just regular dyno usage. Jeremy's response is always the same. None or "I'll get back to you". I personally wont be going there even if they were the best shop in town, their customer service blows. I guess you have to really know them to get some service.

I didn't want to hear that, I can not find a installation and tuning company in Texas. I don't have the time or money to lug the Z around to get it all buttoned up and tuned

there is Asians there and they can tune UpRev ;)

Please leave the shop wars out. I have my personal options about other local & out of state shops but I will not discuss them in someone's build thread.

DZEL: I would suggest doing research and contact various shops to make your choice for where you like to take your car.

Ron: Empty your PM box! LOL

Ooops, its empty now. Sorry for the derail lol

We are lucky to have so many shops in the Houston area that do great work on VQ's. I suggest getting on local forums, other car forums and general searches to figure out what suites you. Hell, come to town and visit the shops, meet the owners, etc.... spending big money on FI isn't a joke unless you ball like Robert K :)

Getting back on topic..... that Haltech unit is golden. Can't wait to see the final numbers after break in.

:werd: I want Haltech...

You do make a good point. Make a trip to Houston, or even Dallas, and go to the various shops. Talk to owners like myself, O&G, Ron, Dreamer, etc... who have gone through the FI experience at various shops. I bet we can tell you what we like and don't like even with the shops we repeatedly use.

Oh and I might be spending big money now but as soon as I get home it comes to a dead stop! :wtf2: LOL

Back to subject... I believe the car should be hitting the dyno next week for break-in and than tuning. My wife will be taking the HREs to EVS Motors next Friday to have the R888 mounted. Than to PowerFab and hopefully we'll see some pictures of them installed. Or maybe I'll wait on posting them and won't show the car till I come home. :icon23:

(Didn't mean to derail the thread but this is alot of money we're talking about and it's easy to waste thousands if you make the wrong call)

Haltech is the S*it. Can't wait to see your final numbers.

I'll be in Austin later this month and through the rest of the year I can take long weekends here and there. When ever I get my budget figured out on which way I want to go and I'll make.

Check out Boost Logic. I have a good friend that works there. Let me know and I'll give him a heads up you're coming.

Will do:tup:

I'll be there 4/20 throwing my bro in law a bachelor party. Will he open up Saturday? I'll make it there early Friday.

Can you make it Thursday evening before 7PM? If so you can meet up with us and enjoy dinner and a few beers.

wait, what's going on on that date?

Sorry man I reserved the hotel for friday check in, and I'll be working late that night lining everything out for my absence

That's Smoker appreciation day.. (The good stuff):happydance:

Thursday is the weekly meet you noob, the one you missed last night. :p

Even I knew that and I live on the other side of Texas. Thats almost like the other end of the world!

Back to subject you post whores! LOL

hahhahaha. No but Dzel said he was going to be in Austin on the 20th, not in Houston. You got the wrong city noob!

I am a post whore. What you forget to post:postwhore::o

We'll get back on to your build I'll PM the girls on my trip.

Robert about how much are those wheels, or HRE wheels in general for that matter?

Price really does matter based on wheel, sizing and choice of coloring. MSRP for a set of 19" P43SC is $6800. But that's MSRP. I can give you my vendor if you are truly interested but HREs are far from cheap. I think I've heard of a set sell for in the $4k range. :confused:

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOBS (trying to get more post under my belt, go ahead and rep me too)

HRE or GTFO

I want a step lip for sure. Not sure on face design yet. 19x10 and 19x12. I am not on the market yet but will be right after I get coilovers and brakes.

CAUTION: 19x12 is sexy, be careful

I want a step lip as well. Leaning towards Avant Garde's M350. Boost will be first though

I'll hit you up on Facebook on my vendor. Also talk with Lon, bugzy, he helped me with my offset selection. Check out the 560C series. I plan on getting a second set for my daily whenever I buy one. :tup: And trust me when I say that HRE is customer service!!!! HRE and Tony stayed in contact with me all the time and were VERY helpful with all my questions. The wait is rough but well worth it. :tup:

[QUOTE=were VERY helpful with all my questions. The wait is rough but well worth it. :tup:[/QUOTE]

Thats what she said:tiphat:

Wife snapped some new pictures of the wheels.

Well wheels are not getting tires till Friday. And I don't know when PowerFab will be mounting them.

Well the steering wheel and new spoiler arrived, Seibon TB-style.

What's customer service? EVS Motors using Ustream so I can watch my HRE wheels getting a set of Toyo Tires R888 mounted while in Iraq! Thanks Ted!
