What have you heard about Tempest? I plan on having Joe at Tempest tune my setup.

if i lived in MD, i'd definitely take it to joe at Tempest Racing. he does great fabrication work, tunes hondata and joe is overall a pretty cool guy. i don't know who would talk down on him but just check out his own car and how he's been doing in the racing scene. i believe his sn is Turbo-Charged.

joe simpson/tempest racing

go to him, hands down, better than inline pro and any other tuners in the area IMO, been on his dyno quite a few times, im tuned by him right now and he is a cool guy and is all about customer service and making sure you leave happy! Ill be back there monday to tune for high boost! and his SFWD car is insanity.

Yep. Tempest is a good shop. They did my previous custom turbo setup on my Tl along with tuning it with the pos emanage mess. They did a good job and the car will be going back to them soon for a new setup along with tuning from a tec3r unit. for Joe and Tempest Racing.

hell yeah he is running the t1 cam trigger now and thats the reason for the different cam gears (the GE gear has magnets in it user to trigger ignition/vtec or something, idk, its the exhaust side gear)

nothing wrong with JE import, they did a great job with my honda, and my brothers nissan altima, and his MR2. If you live closer to Tempest, then go to JOE, but if you live north of Annapolis/glen burnie, then go to JE import. I highly recommend, James knows what he's doing!!!
