Exclamation Dyno Tuning with New Sponsor - Automotion Ky.

Well, this is my 1st posting as an employee of Automotion in Louisville, Ky. So, here goes:


Yes, I'm back!! However, I am only an employee working for Automotion as their Tuner. I have no ownership or affiliations with the company, though I have been doing Dyno Tuning at/for Automotion for the last 7-8yrs on a "by-the-job" basis. But I'm happy to announce, that as of 9-7-10, I accepted the Full-Time Tuner position.

If you live in the mid-west, chances are you've already heard about Automotion and the excellent quality of work they've been turning out since opening the doors in 1979. If you haven't yet heard about us yet, I'd encourage you to visit the website link in my signature for more information. As well as Automotion's Facebook page, where there are new pics and updates added almost daily.

We have a huge facility housing two in-ground Mustang MD Dyno's. One 2wd Dyno and one 4WD Dyno. We offer dyno testing, full service dyno tuning for GM, Ford, and Imports, using HPTuner, SCT, AEM, Cobb, FAST, etc. Automotion also offers performance parts and installations, custom fabrication using the newest, most advanced, and largest assortment of modern equipment in the tri-state area. All of our Technicians are ASE Certified, and we're fortunate enough to have several ASE Master Techs onsite as well.

Automotion has all of the latest software, and we service virtually any vehicle from Audi to Zonda!! Which is why on any given day, you're likely to see the parking lot sporting ultra-rare vehicles, such as the new Corvette ZR1, Porsche GT, Ferrari Scuderia, Mercedes SLR, Audi R8, etc, etc.

So, stop in, say Hi, and check out all that Automotion has to offer. Or give Cindy "The Dyno Lady" a call to discuss your dyno tuning needs. She's a wealth of performance knowledge and has been running the Dyno Shop at Automotion since the dyno's were installed 9 years ago.

Lastly, I have no doubt that simply by me posting on LS1Tech again, it will likely shake up the hornet's nest. And that's ok. I am more than happy to speak to anyone about anything, just as long as it's at least discussed in private first. It will be 6 yrs ago next month since I was forced to close the doors at LS1 Motorsports. It was one of the saddest days of my life. Mainly because I loved going to work everyday. And now, thanks to Automotion, I love going to work everyday again! So if there's anything I can help anyone with, please feel free to ask. Other than that, I look forward to getting involved again on LS1Tech and posting up new projects, R&D, and sharing helpful information with fellow lsx'ers.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Welcome back!
Talk about bringing back memories!!! Believe it or not, we sold 40,000 Direct-Flo airlids from August of 1999 - October 2004. Well, technically we sold 39,999. I still have #40,000.

GREAT to be back!!!

Hey Josh! I almost called you a couple of weeks ago to talk about some turbo stuff, but got too busy. As you know, everyone is trying to get their cars ready for the next Shootout.

Seen a couple of your builds and they look really nice! Glad you're doing well!! (though last I read, sounded like you've been burnin it at both ends lately too)

I'll try to find time this week to call you though.

Yeah its been hectic. Running a full time Turbo shop on top of a full time Maintenance job at the plant makes free time a premium comoditiy. Hell I am buring both ends and the middle. Call me anytime.

Rob you need to make that Direct Flo lid again. Best lid on the market and there's still a demand for them if the price is right.

Welcome back.

Good to see you back here, Rob. Sorry I missed the call the other day. I'll give you a yell soon. BTW - I bought a 77 Vette to screw around with.

WOW Matt!!! Judging by your signature, you've bought a lot of cool stuff lately!!

I tried calling you back again later and got your voicemail. But I'm home now, so you can call anytime tonight if you get some free time.

Thanks again everybody for the support! I sincerely appreciate it.
