colletti motorsports in centerville ohio which is south of dayton but they charge 225 an hour to tune hondata and there motto is how ever long it takes. Personally drive to indy or somewhere else. I been saving up to get a 4b of my own to do my own tuning cause after prob 2-3 hours at colletti it would be worth it to me

i'm totally for paying for tuning, but $225 per hour is a bit ridiculous anywhere in the country.

figure you need 4-5 hours which will push you to $1000.

exactly my thoughts Bgod, I dont mind paying for quality tuning but I asked how many hondata systems he has tuned and he can count on 1 hand. along with a few people who had their systems tuned by him werent happy with the drivability etc once they were done. so if your base map is undriveable make a visit there to make it acceptable and go some where else which is prob a good drive

I had my hondata tuned by tom payn. I highly reccomed them.
By now with all the motors he's tuned he must have tons of base maps.
Dyno tuning is cost you can't avoid, but I got a lot of good advice for free.
I didn't have to go back for any changes, he got it right the first time.
