Looks like the turbo DSM will be all back together before the trip! Won't be tuned but still with for the fun. So at least two DSM's and maybe 3 if the Spyder gets done too. Anna couldn't get the days off work so that means 3 people here and up to 3 cars.

I gotta make it one of these years. The MR2 wont be done by cruise date so I definitely can't make it.

More people going from out of state than from the cities I think.

He isn't on here, but I'll ask and find out. He has 4 or 5 that we'll be bringing up, they I know for a fact they are not compatible with the cheapie 2-ways.

He said they're "special keyed digital" and not compatible with others. He has 6 of them though, so enough for our caravan up. I always put my phone # on the map packets too for everyone just in case.

Add to the list my bud Tyler Moses. He will be staying with me and my parents since Anna can't go and will be driving in a Mustang!

Hoping to have the 2g ready to go for this, brakes and wheels to go on and should be ready :-) I'll be in the running for slowest car on the cruise since I'm still sporting the t25, but I know it will still be a blast!

Have you guys ever tried the apps on the phones that turn them into 2 way radios essentially?

Yup, crap. Don't worry about radios, we're bringing them along just for the roadtrip up to chat.

Re: MitsuStyle Spring 2015 Cruise - April 25 & 26 - Dubuque, IA

We need the headset style ones with radios built in, that would be boss.

PS. I am hoping it's just a massive boost leak but I think my turbo shit the bed this week. So far I haven't found any boost leaks (haven't done a boost leak test yet) but the car makes no boost/power now. Hopefully I can find the issue this weekend, but worried this might be the stock turbo giving up the ghost on so much shaft speed etc.

Sena or scala if you aren't that far apart. Works for motorcycles, why wouldn't it for cars?

Re: MitsuStyle Spring 2015 Cruise - April 25 & 26 - Dubuque, IA

So for some late developing drama, i learned the speed bleeder are a bad idea on brembos and stripped a bleeder screw trying to get the bleeder to stop leaking. (Its stupid but the seat area is smaller on the speed bleeder so they tend to seep and leak). So I ordered set of ebay specials to be here friday night. Woot for last minute fun! I will sign myself up and crash with whoever will have me like the whore i am.
