September 19th is the day. Jeff Robertson, Rocketchip, will be in attendance. I'm not going to book any work myself as I really would like to meet more people this time around. The two bays in the garage are open for whoever needs them though. Time will be 8am till whenever. I'll be bbq'ing burgers and dogs.

More updates to follow shortly!

My address is;
3496 Slabtown Road
Lima, OH 45801

It's the red house and red garage on the SE corner of Bluelick and Slabtown. I now have a driveway exiting onto Slabtown so you can follow your GPS and wont end up in my front yard anymore.

This sounds like a possibility-although it seems that whenever I want to go to one of these,something comes up that prevents me.....I was wanting to go to the one in Michigan in a couple weeks,but I found out Monday night that my son has a soccer tournament that day and my wife is going to see a couple dumbasses get married near Watertown.....

Hahaha, holy crap, I'm blind as a bat apparently... Date has been edited for the 19th. And I can't even use the excuse that he posted that up after I made this thread :eek:.

Harden,

You MUST bring a bunch of Saratoga Chips from the Emmett House to share.

They are AWESOME!

I plan to make this one! Know just about where you are located as that is part of a shortcut I take between US 30 and I-75 when going to Columbus or Baltimore. :)

What time would this be? I'm interested in meeting some people from the site, but have to work that day. Lima is only a 2-2.5hr drive for me though, and I used to make it round trip once a week when I was in school up there.

I'm gonna try, but I don't know how much time I'll be able to get away from work after taking a whole week off for TDI Fest.

Matt,

I'm going to try to make it to your GTG in September. I've got to get the glow plug update/recall and will need Jeff to also re-tune my Beetle. Keep me in mind when you decide to fabricate the FMIC for a Beetle. Thanks.

I'm there, do we need to set up an appointment with Jeff, or does he just go by first come first serve?

He has a sign in sheet that he puts out. Be there early to make sure your name is on the list.

I should be there. Hopefully bring the other son who's in college down that way. I'm thinking about putting in larger injectors. Will Frank06 or someone else be there to assist. I also need to figure what size would be right. The car is stock other than RC2 tune. I figure a larger injector would help when I run bio diesel in addition to a little more power. Thoughts?

At least sprint 764's are my recommendation. Bigger nozzle=shorter injection duration, which is always good even if you're not after lots of power. I'll be glad to help you install them. I'm not booking myself for major work so I should hopefully be around to help anyone this time.

I don't want to take over your thread, but I was looking at Drivbiwire's nozzle selection guide. Was your line of thought with the Sprint 764 increasing the size while still being relitively inexpensive? Aside from a slight increase in size and price over the Sprint 764, would there be an advantage to using one of the PowerPlus line (PP764)? Quality? Lastly, do you have a recomended vendor?
Thanks,
Carl
