arent you busy enough as it is ? Seems to me like work in the shop will double. I couldn't imagine working all day in the shop and then doing a night job on top of that.

Awesome! I've got plenty of die hard Ford buddies. Lots of TT Cobras and even TT Lightnings and HD F150s.

One thing they have in common is the SCT tune. Of which, none are truly happy. From what I understand SCT supplies a base tune, and trans program as well. Most tuners don't touch the trans, and doddle here and there with the PCM tables.

I think you would be just the man to get the job done.

Why don't you figure out how to tune BMWs while your at it. I've currently got the S/C M3 down in Philly getting tuned. And my M5s DME is out being flashed, by one of the only gigs in town. I can't wait to see how much money I've wasted, and how much power I didn't make LOL.

Agree with Diesels. No need to bother, there are a couple big names around, who are actually quite good. Why compete in a market that would probably end up as a pain rather than a gain.

Hey Don good place to get some free advertising is heading up to the car show at gillete stadium every other thursday. This past thurs there was 1200+ cars there and 400+ bikes. Lots of cars obviously mostly classic in general but lots of foxbodies, factory five cobra kit cars, and about 5 or 6 ford GTs all lined up in a row.

Looks like lots of good business opportunity.
