i personally go to a shop in eastern washington called kaizenspeed but if i were u in seattle i would go to intec ive heard nothing but good things about them but i cant say ive ever gotten my car tuned there. as for axiom they dont tune with crome, uber, or hondata. they do tune vafc's which me and a few buddies have had done there and they did a good job. they love AEM EMS there im not a big fan of AEM EMS i love my hondata s200b. whats yer set-up and what are u tuning with?

oh **** i jsut noticed us aid NOT INTEC sorry bro then my next suggestion would be axiom and if they dont offer tuning for the program your running try speedline they take cars to a local dyno and tune cars as well with crome they love it.

i had my prelude tuned at intec and was reasonably happy with the guys there but i don't thing the tune that i got was as good as it could have been...I'M NOT SAYING DON"T GO there but just be sure you know what you want and make sure you cover your bases...i think what eventually did in my motor was not tuning the ignition enough and not properly tuning the part throttle....all that was done to mine was WOT...I have to take the responsibility for not making sure that they properly tuned all aspects...they've (INTEC) been featured at least twice that can remember in Honda-Tuning, so thats defenatly not a bad thing at all...i pretty happy with them

its about 3 hours from u but i recomend kaizen speed click on there link in my sig. Reid the owner treats u like one of the guys not a customer we got 411whp out of my car this was pushing my fuel system as far as it could go i was losing presure just after peak tourque we figure i would have gotten another 20 peak hp but my pump is either faulty,bad voltage to pump, or clogged filter i blew it up before we fixed it. i was still running gsr cams as well so he helped me out on picking my set-up apart to get all i can out of it. he works with u to let u know what u need and keeps u from buying crap. i blew (not his fault i missed 4th and motor hit about 12k+ and blew) that motor but hes building me a new set-up that we are going to hit 460+whp and im sure when its done we will find even more to improve on. BTW this is on pump gas. he makes trips to the west side just to tune cars he prefers hondata but will tune AEM crome and uber as well. u should hit up his site and give him a call i believe in a few weeks he is going to be in tacoma or seattle tuning some cars.

It sucks that you had a bad experience with intec. A buddy of mine had his turbo z6 tuned there and the outcome was great. They did both partial and full throttle tuning and in the end he came out making 196whp/175wtq @ a mere 8psi on a small T3 .42/.48. And he had a shitty hmt kit on the stock motor.

On the other hand I hear good things about this local guy named David Lee who tunes very well with crome and uberdata.

Intec here.... but as you mentioned...WOT only, however they did offer to street tune it for me when i get a widebaND O2... Car does drive pretty good, a little hole at 38-4000 (right where VTGEC x-over is)- but only in first and second. 3rd on up RIPS

265 HP 273 TQ @ 10PSI t3/04e stock internal f22b1

Do you mind if I ask why you are against them??? Not trying to be a dick, just curious.

Anyone street tune on crome pro up here in the NW???

Indeed, Dave is a great guy, I've known the guy for over 10 years now, a little goofy and hard to get ahold of, but once you have em in the car he does realy good work, he talks you through what it is he is doing, hes not all there for the cash either, its just somthing he like doing.
He's tuned my car like 3 times, should be getting some dyno time for final tune soon. But yea he'll be your best bet.

his name on here and HMT is leed
