if your willing to travel,Job Spetter from the Turbo People in Hastings-on-Hudson is one of the best tuners around.

Hey man, just read your email. We can tune it for you. But it wont be tuned at our facilities. Sardis will tune your car somewhere else on a dyno. Cost will be 180/hour with dyno time. Just let me know

Thanks
Colin @ ECP

to be honest man get rid of the MF2 like i did on my F-max kit and just go wit bigger fuel pump 4,310 rc injectors and 8:1 FMU youll be much happier and safer with it.
after i blew my engine because the MF2 never worked right i learned and now im much happier with the setup now

I think Corporal-Jeff had the same problem with the MF2. Now he's doing a build because of it.

i blew my cuz the damn mf2 was UNtuned which it suppose to be from FMAX. Personally..I think MF2 is great. But since I'm rebuilding my motor and going for more power...bye bye MF2. Hondata and bigger injectors I come

There is nothing wrong with using the MF2. It's all about tuning it. The reason one might thing that an FMU setup would be "better" is because there's basically no tuning involved. You just install the hardware and go. The MF2 benefits because you can tune it.. make your car run the A/F you'd like it to run.. not just some ball-park figure. Plus, you dont run the dangerously high fuel pressures that an FMU creates. Not saying that FMU setups are bad.. cuz bottom line, they work. I just think AIC's and EIC's are alot better if you know what you're doing.

its a 100/ hour for tunning. and 80/hr for the dyno. Is that too much to ask for?

Well it all depends on the tuner right? You get what you paid for. I mean you can get some guys to tune your car for you @ 80-100 but you sure they going to tune it properly? Sardis has been tunning cars all his life. Tunning Haltechs, and other electronics. So the question is do you want a good tuner to tune it? Then it will cost some money. Thats my $.02

All I can say is thank God Autothority is right up the road!! $180 is outrageous. If he has been tuning cars all his life, then why doesn't he break down and get a dyno?

We sold the dyno to Mothers, however we still have access to it. Give me a call if you want us to tune your car.
