Mike at NewEra did my last tune. The tune they did was with a junk fuel pump basically he over compensated for the fuel rails to get a decent tune. He is pushing over 100% flow to the rails. So when I switched out to the Wally 255 it is still pushing all of that fuel when in reality it needs less. So easy tune right? Well after communicating with NewEra and Mike he kindly told me he would prefer not to do my next tune as it would be with some other mods. The mod he talks of is my intake manifold I am now running a Typhoon 85mm and in his words it is "junk and prefers not to do my tune." So I am glad I paid for a license to have my car tuned only to be told what mods I can and can not put on my car. So to avoid an all out flame war of Typhoon is junk understand that is your opinion. I have many friends who have gained good ground with their intake manifold. So if you have any other recommendations I would greatly like to hear of them. Thank you.

Did you look on this website?There is a vendor directory, you can sort by state. Look at the top in the red on the right side going across.

If you bothered to read the post you would realize that I am asking other then New Era as I was told my intake manifold is Junk which is his OPINION! So that being said anyone other then New Era anyone can give me an opinion on.

The faulty fuel pump has been replaced now it feels like my motor is being choked out by all the excess fuel.

Redline is my choice they tuned my car and it was great! he doesn't just do three dyno pulls and it must be "tuned" now. he takes it and does hot and cold starts drives it on The street to make sure it performs well and of course he dynos the car ...his dyno cell is quite impressive. I Live just north of bing and it was worth the drive and money to know my car was tuned right
