We all remember when he had problems and was crying on the site. He forgets... Just another internet tough guy.

Ted remote tuned my ECS kit that I bought from Matt at FSP and after a handful of datalogs and tweaks I have to say all is good. I think his remote tuning program is ok, it seems like part choice when the power levels get high are a downfall...
That said, he tried to get me to use ZR1 plugs even with 10psi at the time and a 125 shot. He also wanted to run leaner than I am comfortable with. My nitrous is all standalone so I tune it myself and datalog and have my wideband tied in via FireWire cable. If not for previous experience and knowing to read catalogs I think id be blown up by now too......ZR1 plugs would have melted me down for sure.
So I'm still on the JRE tune and it is good, don't know what I'll do if I ever change setup. Not sure of any reputable locl tuners (central PA)
I did my own OBD1 tuning on a HSR 383 Vetter with T trim and spray so I knew what I needed, just didn't want do my own tuning with this ride.

The Ted told me it was not his fault, that is was mine because I was the one that hit to order button. I had to tell him I was going to call my credit card company and dispute all charges and only then did he back down. I know right then and there that was a snake in the grass.

I ordered a part off his website one time because he was the only one showing it in stock and I paid to overnight it. Well got a message from him the next day that he didn't have the part and it would be a couple weeks. I said well **** ok just cancel my order then. He tried and tired to charge me a restocking fee for a part that he didnt have in stock but showed in stock. How are you going to charge a restocking fee to restock something you dont even have in stock?

There's no drinking the kool aid if it's true. When the next guy comes out with his motor problems what will Ted's excuse be then. A 98% satisfaction rating. Seems like he's going backwards in tuning experience. Last week it was 35 years, today 27 and 4 years ago 20.

If this is the same RBL on C5 your done you realize that. Just read your comments in whipple hesitation thread.

Yeah that's me. The difference is that I have never trusted him. I remember way back when I got my car and I was just looking for headers and a tune and just about every shop I talked to said stay away from him or would just laugh when I mentioned his name but nobody ever said anything bad about places like ECS or PCM or livernois so I knew something was up. I got to doing some research and seen on here where he popped that crate motor and was like no way in hell am I going there.

At least he is smart enough not to use the zl1 plugs. His time is coming. He's approaching the level where Ted doesn't know what to do. Then it's Kaboom!
