thanks for the referral guys...

We will be running 20% off again at our Open House so let me know if we can help. We have tuned a good amount of cars from your area as well.

Taubr Unit : your sig says Ion tuned your car, but you suggest 2 other shops for tuning ? I am curious why ?

Well good question Larry, basically it comes down to money. $100 vs $600. His tune is pretty dead on. But DID is going to dyno tune my truck As for my truck getting tuned there vs. my camaro... Well lets just not go there, lol..
