Gruvytune tuned some kids B18 turbo hatch here a year or two ago and it put down some really good numbers.

Theres some people up in Toronto I think too. Take the Fast Ferry up!

Innovative Tuning is the dyno shop in Buffalo.

The dynos in Rochester are Ekstens, Fountain Motorsports in Webster and ForceFed out in Sodus. I believe theres another dyno in Webster too that also does some work with boats but I can't remember the name right now.

You mean your best friend?

No offense to Carl or anyone there, but I'd take it to someone who has tuned a few Hondas before. They do know their **** with carb'ed V8s though.

Agreed. All the dyno shops you listed also dont know jack about tuning either. They just have a dyno.

At least 4 hours...

Are you stuck on Hondata? I went to school in Rochester and have some family up there so I know the area...I might be willing to come up for some Crome tuning action if you cant get a hold of Gruvytune.

Nothing if you already have the ECU...just pay for the tune and sell the Hondata and you will have more money than you did when you had the Hondata

An Uberdata, Crome or Neptune chip will run in any OBD1 chipped Honda ECU...a Hondata chip just looks for their proprietary stuff that you install in the ECU (S100 or 200).

There is no real 'switching' involved per se...it just what program your tuner uses to tune you. When they burn the final chip and install it in your ECU, there will be no real difference to you.
