I found my way to here from LS1.com.au after registering for my second go at a WSID track day. Thanks Ryzz and Bomi! June should be a little cooler than 41?C I hope, and I expect to give the VY SS M6 a bit more stick with a bigger MAF.

I'm a civil/environmental engineer with one wife (plenty), several kids (no more now!) and grandkids (even more would be good).

I like to play with EFILive and older Holden Delco EFI programming, and break stuff after trying to go faster. I also like wrecking yards ;) because they have bits for my VL Calais stroker project.

See you at WSID in June if not before!

John

Hi John...Cosmo SS...Met you at the LS1 day and your on site tuning dropped you about a second or so throughout the day:bravo: Hope your in for the next one!You have a good memory Tony. Did you end up buying some of the bits off your wrecked BermudaBlue namesake? And yes, the HSV tune took some time off- still only pulled the spark advance to something like 16? though - I'll have more on board for the June meet though :yep: .

Who you working with? The company is Global Renewables - we "turn garbage into gold":) at Eastern Creek and shortly at Lancashire in England.

Thanks too for the welcome Febs, Seldo, Tiger SS, Scott- yes I can hear you if you yell into the left ear, and thanks Nick, it looks like a friendly site you've built here.

Tx,

JL
