Probably Vengeance Racing. They seem to get the job done quite well with anything mild or wild. Give them a ring...

Jerry can tune he just won't on other people cars for good reason. Jerry is the man when it comes to the Turbo world

Agree^^^^^ do it yourself and learn yourself. Tunes constantly change with weather and it gets costly at $500.00 or more a pop having someone tune it and the damn car still won't out worth a damn. I know several cars running around that supposably have been tuned by the best in Ga and go dead when you crank them. Goodluck with whatever decesion you go with. Everything is more rewarding and better when you do it yourself.

ive never used hp tuners but if it shows u all of your info like a/f timing ect ... then just bump the boost up 11.6/1 a/f is fine for the street its a good safe ratio for a dd just keep it below 12/1 u could probly bump it to around 12 puonds and be safe how much timing do u run im going to guess your around 15-16 ish id buy a sct for it and keep a few different tunes so all u'd have to do is bump the boost up and change the tune when u went to the track or were racing then change it back when u were fiished racing

Vengeance will tune it for free after your first tune. Say you were to change pulley's, they will retune it for free. GREAT bunch of guys.

Oh I thought it was for $50. But free or $50, that's still a hell of a deal...

Yea that retune deal is news to me....I thought you at least paid for dyno time? And isnt HPtuners $500 or 600 plus the wideband plus all the time it takes to learn tuning...

Ive got a rear mount car and was about to take the DIY tune route but its almost the same cost if not more (if you just get one or two shop tunes)

yeah i agree just get a few shop tunes and a sct programer store them and put the tune u want to run on it when u want to run it besides it comes in really handy its like having a tuner with u all the time one for racing one for the street and one for the dyno to put down #'s or however u want works real good with a turbo
