DFW Tuning?

by the way.... Sean does work at that Corvette place... he just hangs out at TRT to share the knowledge...... he is cool like that.
As far as woe for me... you dont have to worry about that, he is gettin back on his feet after that fiasco...... you ask the guy I am sure he would wish to be back at Fastech 1 and never done Fastech 2.... you live and you learn. He is a good guy once you meet him.
as far as tuning...... try spending 2 months tuning cars that have never seen a decent tune and have every imaginable bolt on (damn Kuwaities have serious bank rolls) ...... kinda a crash course in tuning. If it aint right.... he is not too proud to deny it, and will fix it.

In other thing, hope that all the plug wires are at least installed on the plug is the trained by "Sean Freese" dude is doing the work. he likes to leave things loose as ive found out.

All RPM maf tunes are not tuned VE first. Scott can you clerify what I am saying in laymans terms?
As far as being a nutswinger....... I was the only one who posted that they can do tune (i would wait on Scott and SQR for speed density).....TRT has 11 cars in the shop that need engines, turbo kits, transmissions, heads, etc etc...... you dont see them posting like EPP or other sponsors... they are low key and dont act like they know it all.......
Skipperbiscuit, we all know how you feel about SF!!
as far as I am concerned, if you think I am a "nutswinger" because I praise good work and great people........

your truck is the blue one......... Didnt someone tell you to take it easy on the tranny? His is the older blue truck getting the 408, twins, 4L80, etc.., not the Silverado SS.
Just for the record guys, Sean is just turning wrenches a couple nights per week for us. There are no business decisions made by him, I just need a little more help with the overload of cars we have right now.
We are new with tuning and I have no problem seeking advise from more experienced people to ensure the job is done right. My main concern is customer service and making sure the job is done as well as possible.
We have tuned several cars, including a couple of forced induction and they have turned out great.
If anyone has any reservations concerning the tuning, then find a place you are comfortable with.

[QUOTE=trtturbo] This right here is why I chose you guys.
And don't get me wrong, Sean definitely knows his ****. I hear he's a real nice guy too... just don't involve him in the business decisions
Can't wait!
