Re: looking for a tuner.. Indiana Area. Neptune or Hondata
im having trouble finding a reputable tuner. Now that Superdave left the whipfactory im not really sure who to go to for great tuning. Evans tuning is like a 15 hour drive not sure if i can get my work schedule loose enough for that. I know Dave Blundell use to be tuning down around cincinatti but havent heard or seen him on a board in forever.
I need Dyno tuned. I dont want one of the those guys that just street tune and guess everythings alright (Wont name any names). i can travel tri state area. michigan/Illinois/Ohio and of course indiana.

What about AMS? One of the best street Hondas I ever drove was tuned by them.
If you have a real EMS and not these reflash thingys, there are good tuners everywhere.

My friend had his DSM tuned by AMS.. and my experience with those guys they were just ****in ****** to him. they rushed him in and off the dyno and said thats all they could get out of the motor. it wasnt even 1/2 hour after he was done they had there shop car on the dyno. very pushy and there Ego's are too big.

Re: looking for a tuner.. Indiana Area. Neptune or Hondata
I have had friends with similar experiences in their EVOs, and one in particular who lost a couple of their stroker motors in a period of 4K miles just driving around like the 56 year old man he is...not even hitting the gas. He dropped $76,000 in their shop on that car and they shafted him. But hey....100mm stroke in a 9 inch deck for a street driven turbo car...retarded.

Yeah had a friend go there too, like you said very pushy and big egos. I wouldnt want be around a bunch of guys who dont give a **** and want your car off the dyno asap. Not knocking them, just think they need to stop thinking they are on top of the world.

Re: looking for a tuner.. Indiana Area. Neptune or Hondata
Anybody out here with a dyno can call themselves a tuner lol. Like I said, I have a problem finding a good and reliable one. Somone who will actually take the time out to explain everything and make sure everything is good. Not someone whos gonna charge for a crappy tune and rush me off the dyno. Gonna try at least 2 new tuners this year and see how it goes.

He also tunes my buddy TallKyle's car. Kyle has had a lot of people tune his cars and after every one he always ended up calling me trying to get me to come up from school to tune him, since he was dissatisfied with the tune. Mikey is the first tuner he has had that he hasnt called me in disappointment.
He was also willing to open the shop up once for me at 2 am to dyno a car that had to be on a trailer to a rally the next day.

Yeah, keep an eye out for that. We are starting to see a handful of that going on around Chicago. Owning a dyno is one thing, knowing how to properly use it is another.
Thanks for the kind words fella's. I appreciate it.

blundar & Joe Demaree are still around strong. Although Joe did sell his dyno to a local place near me down here in Louisville, KY.
good luck finding a tuner.

Re: looking for a tuner.. Indiana Area. Neptune or Hondata
Bumping this because I have an h22 with S300 I'd like to get dyno tuned in the spring/summer. From Indy but would be willing to go to Chicago or Cinci, etc for a good tuner.
