I wouldn't let a 18 year old kid touch my ****, but who knows. The website looks like ****, the grammar is horrible, looks like a wangsta trying to play e-mechanic/tuner. If he was known world wide, he should be on some tv/ tuner event, I've never heard of the kid.

Nice website and bio, lol. He may want to consider hiring someone to make a more professional website..

Does he have a dyno, or is he just a "back street" tuner?

on the features page he has a pic of a car that was just posted on H-T in the drag racing forum with a jcr front end.

Probably just found the pic and used it on his site.

Wow, amazing. We've had a recent rash of "shops/tuners" like this in our area. Self proclaimed superstars.....hilarious.

Lots of that around. I know of some guys down the road that "tune". They took a guys car and did wholeshots out in the middle of the highway ripping through gears, then letting their boy give it a shot.

Ended up, one of their customers came to my shop with issues. I found a sheet of paper inside that was like a "DIY" how to tune written by one of them....lol.

1. Let engine idle
2. Set ignition timing
3. Check wideband

Stuff like that...lol.

There's a real easy solution. Ask for references of people who aren't his boys. Ask for numbers of people who he's tuned, then call them and ask.
