a few pics of my recent visit to JDM

hey guys, I just got around to downloading the pics from my recent visit to JDM. www.teamjdm.com

the weather was rain for the drive up, I think I followed tropical storm Gaston up the east coast.

I left Richmond, Virginia at around 3:00am Tuesday morning.

here's a shot of the bridge I think it's the one from Delaware to New Jersey I took at a little before 6:00am.



here's the front door, the place looked a little different than I imagined.


the blue truck strapped onto the dyno, there's Jim on the right.

My truck was in the very same spot today, getting a little of Jim's computer magic.

All I can say is, Jim that new tune 'rocks' truck is running better than ever.

one of Shaun Lacko (sp?) working on JDM's sweet '03 cobra. they had just swapped in a 4R70W automatic, but the car retains what looks like a manual trans shifter. pretty tricky looking.





here is a shot of him cleaning up the Mach1 Mustang PCM to make the cobra run with the new tranny.

here's JimIII in the foreground and Anthony in the background answering phone calls and lots of questions. I was amazed at the volume of calls they received while I was there.


here are just two of the many doors inside the JDM facility. I joked with them that the shop is like a maze, it must have 20 different rooms. everywhere you look there is a door leading to yet another room. there is usually something cool to see behind each door.

the rear of the shop.

I thought I had taken a few more pics, but aparently not.

Julie was in her office most of the day working and babysitting a tiny new kitten.

Jim was running back and forth between his office tweeking my tune, and the dyno to test out the changes most of the day.

not to mention dealing with all the phone calls and walk in customers.

Thanks to Jim for all the hard work on the truck and the tune!

I enjoyed my visit to Freehold. I'll be back A.S.A.P. for a race tune!

sincerely,
chris haynie

Chris, looks like your having a good time.

Sure glad you got the truck up and running again.

Nice to see pictures of how our venders are set up.

It sure takes a lot of team work to make things operate smoothly.

Hey Justin, I have to apologize. I've spoken to you a hundred times on the phone, but when you introduced yourself, I didn't realize it was you.

I'm a little slow sometimes.

I'm pretty sure I talked with you once at FFW VA, but either way, it was nice to see you again.

later,
chris
