I wanted to get sum work done on my car and I called up SQR and they too busy so im looking for another reputable tuner in the DFW area especially around Ft worth. I leave the country in mid April and looking to get it done next week. My mods are in the sig.

I should be up there late this afternoon, if you are wanting a real basic tune, I could do that. You'd definately need to bring it back at a later date for dynoing, etc...

Call me this afternoon if you want to meet up, 817-791-1821

I can't remember my RWHP numbers. I know they are in the Dyno Section. But I did a bunch of 7.1s on the 17s with that setup on SQR TUNE. Had the car re-tuned by Chuck down in Houston . It put down 449 RWHP & 401 RWTQ on Bogarts & mas air put back on it, Did 420 RWHP & 380 something on RWTQ on the SQR Tune & Heavy 17 TT2s with speed denisty tune.

Have you tested the amp draw with your MM and pulled fuses yet?

I would recommend sqr hands down. If you have the time (which I know you dont) I would try and fit in at sqr, they seemed really busy when I was there the other day. I've heard alot about the tunes from RPM but I can recommend sqr's tune REAL fast.

It's really easy...
Just find you a MM that tests amperage.
You then disconnect the negative side on the battery.
Put the MM between the ground side on the battery and your negative wire going to the battery.
This then should register the amp/short draw.
You then start pulling fuses until it goes away.
Then you at least have a good idea of where to look for the short.
Hope that helps you out some.
