Re: Tuning by Inline Pro??? (blackteg)
i'm running off of someone else's map right now that they did untill i can get in there to be properly tuned. It's running a little rich, but it will do for now. Oh yea, either them or steve sakai SGT racing, those are the two that can tune around here.

I second that. They did a horrible job tuning my car and charged me top dollar

im not bashing the shop at all.. Inline does built some fast race cars, but ive delt w/ alot of headaches going to that shop and have known stan and talked to him for a while.. im not gonna blame the motors blowing up totally on inline pro even tho they did rebuilt the motor w/ low comp. pistions and rods the first time and i had them put the motor in as well and get it running and then tune it because i didnt have the place to do it and it and it blew a headgasket 2 times and they did fix it both times but it was just more downtime for me.. when it blew a sleeve and a pistion i decided to take it someone else and have sleeved and have not gone back there..
Ultimate shares a shop w/ Mach V in Sterling and they have a really nice shop and awd dyno also.. been there a couple times cause it close to my house
most recent tune was by ARFab and they did a nice job, Howard took the time to set the car up and show me what they were doing and it was done in a day unlike Inline where it would sometimes take them weeks.. ARfab also has an awd dyno, the shop is a little further then inline but from where i live it takes me the same amount of time to get to inline as it does arfab. Howard also has a 9sec drag car that he has built and that thing is sweet!

Re: Tuning by Inline Pro??? (blackteg)
I would stay away from inline pro. I have only had problems with built motors that come out of there and the tuning is not top notch IMO.

EXACTLY. You cant tune on a dyno jet alone, I don’t care how good you say you are!

I am pretty sure he isn't tuning anymore. He closed a couple months ago. If it was me I would go to Jason at Ultimate.

Re: Tuning by Inline Pro??? (Rhman19)
Inline Pro cars are always fast, but most of the ones i have seen are bootleg set ups. They actually told me once to not go standalone and to go VAFC with a Headgasket from them and run 12's all day no probs? IM like WTF? I dont want that I want a good standalone tuned.

Re: Tuning by Inline Pro??? (slow poke)
i agree,they do make power, but not the way i would prefer. I have heard some other stories too. but thats not relevant. For good Hondata tuning on the east Coast, specifically in your area Steve Sakai hands down. But i dont think he is tuning any more. Check Boosted-Hybrid in PA. Check with jason also. He has the fastest SFWD car out,im sure he knows something about tuning maybe?

They still overcharge you to tune that piece of crap and it only takes um like 15 min's
I think its so they can blame it on the hack when it blows.
You should have seen this 500HP S2000 running the vafc hack
</TD></TR></TABLE>
yes that is very true and what was said to me when they tuned the car before.. they were able to get 306whp forge the tourqe using a vafc and check valves, they were actually saying its very nice for what it was. thats when i had rc440 in there so im sure the duty cycle was almost maxed out. i know now from reading up more and gaining knowledge you dont run the vafc w/ check valves or it cause disaster!! im now running hondata s200b
an another note, i dont like nu image to much.. ive seen then "tune" cars by racing the car up and down baclick rd while changing settings on the vafc until he thinks its good, no dyno, no wb02, nothing

A dyno isnt really needed until you touch timing maps to tell you the truth. Street tuning is the best real world scenario you can do . With no Wideband though is plain retarded
