Oh, sorry - I know what they are - I was just poking fun! I thought they complimented Tom's pink mufflers nicely...

I am supposed to be there at 8:00 am also. Not exactly sure why, but I expect they will start talking easy stuff off mine while they tear Scott's apart.

Thanks for the offer Tom, depends on weather and such when I leave. Takes me about 3 hours also.

Tom, I have never really noticed does Brent have an actual install bay or do they do the work in the dyno bay?

Hey Ben,
I wondered the same thing. I have never walked around the back of the building to see if there is another bay or not. I think I have decided that I am going to go up on Thursday night and stay at a hotel close to Brenspeed. I think I will call them on Monday to see if there is a motel close to them they would suggest. Getting up at 3 AM is less appealing the more I think about it.

In the bay where the dyno is, on the left hand side, is a lift.... that is where Dave works on the cars while Brent tunes them on the dyno. So technically it's one bay but big enough for 2 cars- one being on or near the lift, the other being on the dyno.

Scott, check with Brent about hotels.... I bet he can get you close and maybe even a discounted rate.


I will just plan to head up Friday morning and meet you guys there.....

This really isn't an act is it? You really wake up every morning a little on the "WACKO" side don't you.

I e-mailed them about it last night. Here is their reply.

We have many hotels to choose from in Warsaw. We prefer the Comfort Inn and Suites, its nice and in a good location. It’s right on HWY-30 and next to a Ruby Tuesday. If you tell them you are in town to do business with Brenspeed you should be able to get our discounted rate. I do not have their number handy but it’s the only Comfort Inn in Warsaw.

Did they knock out a wall to put in the lift or move the Dyno? I remember the dyno bay being a little over 1 car wiide. There was a small room on the right side of the dyno bay where they filled Nitrous bottles

Hey Ben,
Sounds like you saved me a phone call on Monday. I will look up the Comfort Inn this weekend and make a reservation. Are you thinking about going up Thursday night also? Larry has to be at Brenspeeds at 7 AM and I would like to be there with him when he is on the dyno. I just don't want to have to leave the house at 3 AM to get there by then. I am hoping Larry will come up on Thursday night also but his schedule is still up in the air. Maybe we all can hook up at the Comfort Inn on Thursday night.
Scott

What! you think your the only Old Man thats still works for a living....Scott I purchased my Stang to have some fun! Many people on this site take every mod so serious.... I don't come on here to hustle parts for any vendors like some guys do " no names mentioned " to me the the joy of modding is tuning wrenches, skinning knuckles and talking smack!.. Like I've said before life is short Bro! ....Its seems to me that after installing the deletes I've lost some low end HP and torque

Well...I'm thinking you should have got a little shut eye last night. You seem a little cranky. I was only yanking your chain. You know how to do that right? I understand the reason you purchased your pony. That's the same reason I have been buying them for the past 34 years.
On a different subject..I pulled a couple of hex head bolts for your Prothanes at work today if you want them. I know you can find them up there if you want but the offer is still open to mail you a couple. They are 10MM X 1.5 X 50MM long ( 2 inches). You want to get at least grade 5 bolts and better if you get grade 8. The ones I have are grade 8. Send me a PM with your address if you want them. Now get some sleep and come back in a WACKO state like we know you for!!!
