Default Pro Edge Tuning, Wallingford, CT?

Has anyone used pro edge tuning in Wallingford, CT? Or even know someone who has been there?

Looking for a review, they are 10 minutes from my house and would be very convenient!

I've never heard the name thrown around. What is their specialty?

They seem to do a mix of everything. The Mustang guys say they're great, and their featured testimonials are GM cars

Convenient is not always a good thing. Through my research, Pro Edge Tuning and Mongillo Motors are joined somehow. Also my conclusion from research and talking to people was to not go there.

Now that makes perfect sense to me why Alfred hates me so. Always wondered why.

OP. did you end up going there ? I do believe they are one in the same with Mongillo motors which I have read many good reviews on them. I called
them today to set up a tune myself and they seemed very knowledgable and whoever I spoke with really took the time to explain things with
me. Anyway I'll be dropping my car off Friday unless I
come across some nightmare reviews before then.

I did not, I ended up borrowing a trailer and made the trip to Slowhawks. I'm glad I did. The car had a few minor hiccups (which ended up being a used parts issue) but Don's background and experience with the LS platform got them sorted. The car should go on the dyno today, and I'm hoping to be cruising this weekend.

Just Don's visual inspection when I dropped the car off yielded a few things that were incorrect/ill-advised for this specific vehicle, which he corrected. I doubt any other mixed-make/model shop would have even picked up on that stuff. That was peace of mind right off the rip, I knew the car was in good hands.

Used Mongillo once, then met Don through a mutual friend and never went back. He knows his stuff and will not steer you in the wrong direction.

just an update, I had Ed from pro edge do my tune. I was very happy with their service and knowledge. I believe it is run by Billy and Ed. When I first dropped the car off Billy reassured me by walking me through the process and then through the shop and answered all my questions and concerns. He also took the time to give me a bit of his background to again make me feel comfortable leaving my car with them. Ed does the LS tunes so he was in touch with me when he started tuning, keeping me updated by text, call, and email. He went very conservative with the tune as I am on a SBE ad we discussed that. Couldn't be happier with the customer service. I also have read great things about Slowhawk but he is twice as far from me compared to Pro Edge and I am sure I will be back to Pro Edge I the future.
