BB Tune for Houston

[Tahoewhat]

----UPDATED---- !!!!!!!!!THis is happening, JULY 15th, as long as deposits are sent in. So get them in.!!!!!!


Alright guys, Sure most know me, but if not, Im Mike and Im going to try to organize a tune session for Houston, Tx. Ive already pmed jenna and emailed Haley, but need to show interest first before anything happens. I think last time they came, there was around 20-25 people. But i did not own my tahoe at that time. So im sure there are some more that would like a tune or a re-tune. This isnt limited to only tahoe/yukon/silverados/sierras.

We need at least 15 people for this to happen, once it shows interest, i think haley will make a thread for deposits and such and then there HAS TO BE 15 deposits in order for Justin to come to Houston.

If you dont know about BB tunes, here is their website. www.blackbearperformance.com

The Date, is unknown, but on their site its looks like they are busy until fall '11. Before a date is set, must show interest, but the fall time is just a time frame of a possible month. So you guys have some time to save for this, as well as myself.

Nothing is owed as of right now, not a commitment, this is just showing the interest for a tune in Houston.

If you have any questions, comments, concerns, please pm me or email me. I will be happy to help you. My email address will be at the end of this.

Here is a list of the people so far.

thanks,
Mike

[LTLux]

I'm in for sure! I hope we can make it happen before the fall because thats like 5 months away and I was wanting it sooner. I was thinking about going to the ft wort meet but really dont wont to drive 5 hours for a tune.

Lets make this happen!!!!! Like Mike said, all we need is 15 people. This should not be a problem! You dont have to pay anything yet, all we need is intrest.

[sumo]

in Tx? You guys should have no problem finding 15 people.

[Tahoewhat]

in Tx? You guys should have no problem finding 15 people.

yep Texas. I hope not. But they are having a Fort Worth meet, but the San Antonio meet got cancelled, so im hoping those people chime in.

[TXDENALI]

I'm In.

[Tahoewhat]

I got one more person fellas.

[felixgun]

I can't make New orleans meet that's coming up bc i'm busy that weekend so i'm in for this.

[sumo]

SPAAAAMMMMM BOT! Kill it! Kill it!

[Tahoewhat]

SPAAAAMMMMM BOT! Kill it! Kill it!

What? B/c i posted all over.. LOL.. Thats how you gots to do it.. :Handshake:

Come on, you know you want a tune from houston, the air is better. ha ha..

---------- Post added at 10:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 PM ----------

----UPDATE----
1. Updated list w/ new people in 1st post.
2. Got a email back from Haley w/ BB and she is going to look into a date for us. Dont think it will be a for sure date, but at least i will be able to get you guys a time frame on this, or it might be a date. We shall see.

Will update again soon as i find out more information....

For you guys that want to help, Which i GREATLY appreciate you guys helping me out. We just have to get the word out for now. Its getting there. :Handshake:

Felix-- got you added man, thanks.

Also wanted to add, on another forum, Jenna said this..

"Once this round of meets is close to being complete, we will work on getting some dates for you guys! Let us know if you have any questions."

[shawnallansls1]

Sweeeet I was about to log on to there website to order one but if they come here I think it takes the waiting on the mail out... but then again I will be waiting for that day to come for them to come... oh damm decisions.... anybody know a set date for them coming;...

[Rivieraracing]

It's well worth the wait for Justin to tune your rig in person shawnallansls1, keep in contact with Mike for the lastest info!!

[Tahoewhat]

Like Chris said the in person tune is much better. Justin can tune accordingly right then and there. I was thinking of doing the same SD you, mail order one. But after talking to a few they recommended doing it in person. Because mailing you have to wait for a scanner and then again for them to tune your computer. In person you don't have to send anything away noe do u have any down time with your vehicle.

So I'm helping your descion. Lol

But to answer your date question we have to show enough interest first then as soon as that happens they will give us a date.

I will be keeping this updated daily.

[99Yukon_Z71]

Mikey this lookds good, hope they make it a GO!!!!!

[Tahoewhat]

Mikey this lookds good, hope they make it a GO!!!!!

Believe me im trying. lol.. I havent been called Mikey in a long time. Everytime i hear i think of the commercial, mikey eats anything.. ha ha ..


Now back to topic..

Updated again.. this is going to be daily...

1. Updated list with new people interested in tune or re-tune i should say.
2. ALMOST TO THE 15 PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


( just a fyi, did you know Fort Worth meet is having 37 People there. WOW, where are my Houston and surrounding People at? )

If your hesitant on this, id say do it, truck will run much better, just ask fellow members that have one. They all love their BB tune, and i cant wait to be part of that group. Getting a in person tune, can get alot of questions answered you may have, or anything really and you get to meet some of the houston and surrounding area TYF family. So any of you guys outside of houston, Come on and sign up, this is just interest, no payment is due only a response of yes your interested, then i can get a date which i know most are waiting on and as soon as i get one i will post it up for everyone and hopefully that will get some folks to sign up and maybe we can beat the Fort worth crowd.. ha ha..

[Tahoewhat]

Tonites update...

Sadly i have nothing new. Except this is getting noticed, which is good.

[Tahoewhat]

Nothing new to update tonite either, but if you hesiatant on this, this is your chance to meet justin the bbtune man himself. You can watch while he tunes your truck to its potential..

Houston and all around, join in. Surely not everyone is going to the fort worth tune.

[ScottyBoy]

DFW is ALWAYS big for Justin. He goes there at least once a year now. He goes so often that he uses the Vet clinic that one of the Moderators over on Truckmodcentral owns as the meeting spot for the tuning session. Its calld Rickords animal hospital.

[Tahoewhat]

thats what im guessing since there are almost 40 folks, but houston is bigger, where is everyone. Your not the 1st to tell me about the dallas tune spot either. On another forum someone told me that. I for one, not driving there for a tune.

Hopefully some more people will see this and chime in, if your a lurker, stop lurking and sign up just to chime in here for a tune.. :Handshake:



--edit. added one more person---

[ezdaar]

I'm in! Hck yea! Im definatly in!

[Tahoewhat]

Sorry been busy, but have updated the list. There is two more people added to it. Almost a go guys. :Handshake:

[emann_01]

already got my tune but I just wanted to slip in to mention the idea of making this a general meet also...it all depends on the date if I can make it but we can worry about that after the date is set

[LazyAssLou]

Mike, if you can pull this off then I am in!

[Tahoewhat]

Not a bad idea for those that would want to come out and say hello or whatever.

Mike, if you can pull this off then I am in!

Its getting there. I mean doesnt have to happen right now, so considering we are at almost 15 already, in just a couple weeks, i see this hapening.

adding you to the list lou.

The only bad part is, this is just interest, no a set thing, so hopefully once this gets going, people put in the deposit so it does happen.

[Garret813]

I'm in for sure! Let me know when they need the deposit and how much. I've got a Denali beggggging for a tune upgrade. I travel a lot for work and just cant get to forth worth that weekend. The sooner the better in Houston!

[Rivieraracing]

Do you already have a BB tune or would you be a first time tune? I ask because if you already have one, then retunes should be free for you!! If you haven't, then pm Mike (Tahoewhat) and he will get you on the list!!

[pimpske]

Im in for this.....Put me on the list of interest.

[Tahoewhat]

I'm in for sure! Let me know when they need the deposit and how much. I've got a Denali beggggging for a tune upgrade. I travel a lot for work and just cant get to forth worth that weekend. The sooner the better in Houston!

As rivieraracing said, are you in need of a tune or are you tuned already and need a re-tune. Either way is great. Just need to put it down on my end.

Im in for this.....Put me on the list of interest.

Added both of you guys to the list.

Haven been on in awhile, been real busy taking care of things, but i updated list w/ new people and going to email haley and see whats up on a date. Im sure there are some more folks that would like to tune thier tahoe or truck. makes a great improvment, really helps w/ shifting points.

[Tahoewhat]

-----------update-------

It has come to my attention that on the BB site, under calender of events there is a SUMMER 2011 UPCOMING MEET. Need 13 deposits and im sure it will happen.

Here it is copied from thier site. I have pmed jenna about this, b/c i was unaware of this..


Summer 2011, Houston, TX

Cost: $50 deposit for time slot, $200 at time of tune (total $250); $20 surcharge for credit card
Total Deposits Needed: 13
If you are interested in attending this meet, please send an email to: tuning_HTX@blackbearperformance.com


So start emailing and get your deposits in so we can make this happen..

:hands:

[Tahoewhat]

Just making sure you folks that showed interest no this has been updated..

Send in your deposits.

[ScottyBoy]

Also take note, retunes do not count towards the minimum number of people required. He can most likely do tune updates but the minimum number of deposits needs to be sent in first.

[Tahoewhat]

thanks scott. Not sure if i mentioned that, i know i did i think on another forum that has the two retunes, so if your retuning get in touch w/ jenna or haley first before you send in payment. new tunes get your deposit sent in. But only 13 people are needed for a tune according to the BB site, and we have at least 16 w/ out retunes, so long as all send in deposits we are good to go.

[My01yuk]

I was in Houston this past weekend and saw plenty of yukons and tahoes on custom wheels. There should be no problem getting the 13 needed. Now granted not sure if any of them are members on here, just knowing how big Houston is surely this meet will be a go. I'm getting excited waiting for mine next weekend.

[Tahoewhat]

Alright guys, i was wrong.

Do not send in anything as of yet. I have heard back from jenna and haley. They say to wait until a date is set, then haley will make a thread for deposits and that is when you need to send in your deposits. Not now. Sorry, a little mis-communication. A date is expected next week. So i will keep you informed.

thats what i thought when i was the organizer for the first BB tune meet in Houston...i think I reached out to about 13 different forums! come on Houston!

[Tahoewhat]

LOL. and checking all of them is crazy. Pm here and pm there, i finally had to get some paper and write this stuff down. lol.

[Rivieraracing]

Now you know why I told you I had 3 different papers going at one time when setting our meet here!! ha ha ha!

[Tahoewhat]

Yes i do chris, yes i do.

[Garret813]

FYI: I'm going to need a whole new tune. I've already put on the K&N FIPK and a Magnaflow muffler swap. The truck sounds like a beast, but the transmission is definitely holding it back from its full potential. Let me know what dates y'all are thinking about doing it. I've got a busy travel schedule this summer and want to make sure I can get the truck to the meet.

Not sure by what you mean by new tune? Do you already have a tune?

[Tahoewhat]

But i am finding out more as we speak.

[TXDENALI]

Do we know when we are going to select time slots? Any idea on location yet?

[Haley@BBP]

Do we know when we are going to select time slots? Any idea on location yet?

Timeslots will be sent out about 2 weeks prior to the meet, and at the time, I will send the location as well. We usually pick the hotel that Justin will be staying at as the location.

Can I get this Hotel information so I can book my hotel ASAP for this meet? I've paid the deposit. Thanks for your help!!

[Haley@BBP]

He has not yet purchased his flight or made a reservation at a hotel, so at the moment, he hasn't decided where he is staying.

[Tahoewhat]

Well looks like this meet is going to happen? Cool.

I forgot who suggested a little mini meet, but anyone interested in going up there and just meeting some locals and close locals.

[pimpske]

Im in on this......

[Tahoewhat]

[Tahoewhat]

Any of you guys want to make this into a mini meet? I know it was brought up, just wondered if some others would join in?

[felixgun]

Just double checking, but do I need to bring anything with me to Houston for the tune other then myself and my Tahoe?

[Tahoewhat]

Just double checking, but do I need to bring anything with me to Houston for the tune other then myself and my Tahoe?

No sir, just you and your Tahoe.


For those of you that got a BB tune today, how you enjoy it so far?
