This is one of my first times venturing into the tuning forum and from this thread I've noticed a few things,
1. RPM seems to be one hell of a customer friendly shop
2. Ed knows his ****
3. Glad to have people in the forums willing to speak their mind when someone else is wrong, even if it is a little abrasive, factual information is a lot more important than the delivery
To the OP:
I hope things with the car work out, it isn't too much to ask for to have a decent tune so you can drive your car and enjoy it often without a ton of problems.

Thanks for all the information guys. Some of it was very helpful. My friend and I took the 7 hour drive to Virginia last night and dropped the car off today with Ed at Virginia Speed. After spending some time with him today I'm confident that we are in good hands... I hope to post some good results at the end of the week...

Post air temp correction and pressure too.
I hope the car works out for you.
I know my info is totally wrong. I should delete it all so not as to misinform the public.
Tuners know everything. Problem number 1 with tuners thinking they do engineering work.

This will be a true test of Ed's tuning capability... I've had this car tuned by four different tuners in the North East (I will not mention any names, but I'm sure you all would know a few) and haven’t been happy with any of the tunes... I have to say that of the four tuners we've used to date that three of them have sincerely tried to make it right... The last local tuner, who happens to be one of our good friends, has gone far above and beyond to make this setup work. I am a bit of a perfectionist so the tuners definitely have their hands full... If Ed can fix the issues that all others have been unable to, then in my eyes he'd be "The Man"! I sincerely hope that he is… Stay tuned…

Actually alot of the info is right, I realized there were some mistakes like I said and then went back and corrected. And actually I am a Mechanical Engineer, automotive and controls specialty. I do calibration on production vehicles but I am sure I don't know ****, educations are worthless along with degrees I guess. Damn should have been an independent high school educated tuner.
And don't get me wrong I am not saying all tuners. I am just saying ed. He seems to be all knowing and quick to attack other ppl he doesn't see eye to eye with, but I can tell you I think i understand PCM and logic. And Ed if you have issues with my posts why don't u just quote them and tell everyone how stupid I must be by correcting them for me. Since I obviously must not understand.
