I know this is like beating a dead horse, so respectfully please dont post on this thread if all your going to do is talk s***. Anyways I just got my b16a2 swap done on my 98 EK HB and with cams intake and soon to be on the car cx racing turbo kit. With OBD1 conversion. My question is who is the best tuner for the job in the San Antonio and Austin area? Ballpark price ranges too.

 

I'll leave a response here in a second. TL;DR - Good tuning options are hard to find in our area.

Precision R is decent/acceptable, but they do street tunes only and don't typically use a dyno. They're honest workers though, and not hard to deal with. It'd be worth talking to them. They're in SA. I'll elaborate when I'm back home.

 

thanks for the reply I will look into them if I find no one else.

 

The one thing I will say, is I don't know if they're still in business, but don't use Noribilt. They're amateur hour to the definition.

I've never used JMS racing but I've always been suspect of their tunes from what I've seen other people riding around with. I've also been unimpressed with the dyno plots I've seen from them, the torque curves are always all over the damn place. As a business I think they lack some of a "professional" atmosphere as well.

Boost Logic in Austin would be my #1 recommendation. There's at least one guy there that tunes Honda's, and they do impeccable work and take the time to get things dialed in right. I'm not sure if they'll want to work on an eBay turbo Honda though, and it wouldn't be cheap for them to get the tune.

 

what kind of price you think?

 

the real question is why spend the money on a good tune and slap on the shittiest possible turbo kit?

 

A G R E E D.

 

All he can afford

 

Because this is my play car like a go cart. It's not like it's my Chevys or Fords. But thanks for ya'lls input a******s! I'll go to the shop you 2 guys recommended 🤔

 

Thanks, I'm glad you understand where I'm coming from.

 

Let us know how it goes....when it blows up on the dyno at 5psi of boost. LOL

I'm guess it's on stock injectors, fuel pump and no internal upgrades??

 

dont be mad you attacked me. Just so you know it has a e85 ready 340lph pump, 550ccinjectors, pfte lines to the front it will be running e85. Be quiet and go bitch elsewhere. Goddamn crybaby!!!

 

is that what the shop told you they put in? Just curious...

 

Nope I do my own work. I build it, I dont pay people to do my ****.

 

how the **** was that an attack...jesus the interweb jumps to conclusions way to damn soon these days like they makeing 100 psi....bring back 1998 already...

 

well **** I didnt ask to be questioned on my parts, this is a fun car for me. If I wanted a top of the line kit I would get a top of the line turbo kit. I mean for ***** sake all I asked was for a good tuner in the Austin, san Antonio, texas area people start talking talking **** about my kit. If it blows it blows ****. Thanks to those who gave me a name to a shop.
