Default Tuner in/or willing to travel to Orlando area. Vouches needed

Alright guys Ive looked through the sticky and need more info than provided.

Im in a bit of a stump. I figure I will be finished with my project by mid October and am needing a good credible tuner that is willing to travel, or in Orlando. It will be tuned using aem ems (30-1040) with wideband already installed and ecu controling boost via solenoid. Im looking for a sttreet tune with maybe dyno. Heres a little more info on the setup.

2 liter sohc accord converted obd1.
70mm bbk tb
edelbrock victor mani
pnp head mild na cam
built block (crower rods n wiseco 10to1 comp)
precision sc61 with tial 38mm
3"downpipe n exhaust
precision 880cc injectors with walbro 255


I need input about positive experiances and who to stay clear of. I was contacted by a couple of members before but lost their info.

I hate to make a non tech thread like this but I need options. Any help will be appreciated

Well I know of 2 places in orlando, and thats CFT and Titan. Titan didnt seemed interested in tuning and more in taking my money. If someones gone to CFT plese post experiences.

Of course Mase is an option but I emailed twice to the email on his site and no response. So dont know if hes that busy or maybe I sent to wrong email addy.

Id love to hear experiences as well as options. Its taken a long time to get up to this point and dont want to go to someone or somplace thats gonna do a **** poor job and/or blow my engine.

tony413 any help will be appreciated man thanks

Thanks for the help so far. Keep it coming

Don't go to CFT!!! I don't want to talk **** or go into detail in a forum but from personal experience, I will never go there again and I live right by them.

Titan doesn't want you cause there isn't enough money in Honda's. If you had a supra or a WRX/STI or Evo, they would be all over you.

THere are a lot of tuners in the sticky at the top. Mase is the ****, I have had him tune 2 of my setups, but it is a far drive from orlando. There are also several in Tampa area but again, its abou the same distance as Jax (mase).

Maybe Mbter (screenname) can come to you? Or close by, try LHT, my buddy had his K series tuned there:

Thanks for the list Mike1114. I already looked through it and contacted several shop that can and will tune my car with experiance but only at there shop n no street tuning (not a must be has to drive well out of boost n not stall etc)


I need opinions on these places like all the ones in Tampa etc. I can probably tow the car there since its only like a 2hr drive.

Funny thing is Titan and CFT are the only tuning places In Orlando and they are not on that list. lol Is that for a reason???


You know what would be nice if maybe with that list there was a link to each tuner with a vouch thtread etc. That way you could see what others experiances were with that perticular shop/tuner without starting one of these threads?

The member on here ALPHA has tuned tons of boosted Hondas on AEM. His website is http://www.inductionperformance.com/index.html and he is also located in the Tampa area. He does street tuning as well as dyno tuning.

I have known Alpha for a while now. I used to live/tune cars in Tampa all the time and met him there. He is very knowledgable on AEM and I have picked his brain a time or two.

thanks guys for all the vouches for Alpha.


Did I miss something or is there already a section with vouches on this forum? I didnt seem to see any. It would definately help everyone that is searching for reputable tuners in their area. Maybe it should be suggestedto a mod?

Keep em coming guys. If someone has something negative to say and dont feel like posting feel free to pm me. I'd like to hear the good along with the bad.

We did away with all thread vouches on this site. I am also one of the moderators on here. I think everyone can agree with me threads like that will just turn into one big pissing match.

Ah I see. I can see how it would. So I take it a thread like this asking for experiances with shops and tuners dosnt violate any forum rules?
