Default Another happy EFI Alchemy customer

All I can say is WOW! This is the third time that I have had the car tuned and I just couldn't believe how much different the car is... It really is a different car. The car is so much more smoother running and it picked up a bit . The main reason I took the car to them was just for the driveability and they surpassed all of my expectations in that department. I didn't really expect to gain much in the performance area but the car just obliterates the tires now in first and 2nd gear.
The best thing about these guys is the customer service, Rick and Harrison are amazing guys. I brought them the car the first time so that they could look it over and make sure there weren't anythings that needed fixing or replacing first. No other tuner I have heard of does this. That same day we sat down and looked over the current tune in there and Harrison explained what this does and that does and why it was running the way it was. Once again, none of the other tuners that I had look over the car has done this for me either.
After that day we set up a time for me to drop the car off with them and let them do their magic, and magic is pretty much what they do. I highly recommend these guys to anyone thinking about getting their car tuned, though you may have to wait in line but it is all worth it in the end. The main reason why these guys tune so well is that they put forth the time and effort that other tuners do not. I bet they have over 10 hours in tuning the car and for a price that can not be matched by anyone else for the amount of time put into the tune. Thank you very much Rick and Harrison, and good luck with the buisness venture!

PS... When can I get a sticker lol

Doc and Rick helped me out as well. My trans was locking and unlocking in OD and Doc pointed towards the MAF causing the car to go into a failsafe mode to protect the trans. Others on this forum stated it was the trans going and gave me prices on a rebuild...Doc found it was the MAF; he fixed the problem and then spent a few hours on tuning my car THAT DAY! Make a long story short my 125,000 mile SS went from running 13.2-13.3's in the 1/4 to running consistant 12.80's and on the street it would chirp the tires in 2nd. On cool nights I can rip the tires loose in 2nd and this is with Nitto 315 DR's!!! The price of the tune was far less to that of the cost of a tranny rebuild, trust me your money is well spent with EFI Alchemy!!!! Great service and they take the time to help reach your goals of the car. THANKS AGAIN DOC & RICK!!!!!
