Default Where to find good tuner central FL

I am looking to build either a B16 or Gsr turbo swapped hatch soon. I live in fort myers area of florida and cant seem to find a good tuner. I looked when I had my srt4 tuned for someone and ended up tuning it myself but its not as complexe as a honda tune. Anybody can throw me a good tuner in this area... Thanks sorry if this is in the wrong section just where I have been reading. Thaks

ARE YOU SERIOUS?

There is a thread about one of the best tuners on HT on the same page as you posted.

Really the first thing you need to do is read up on the FAQ and learn HOW TO USE THE SEARCH FUNCTION.

in Central Florida you have:
CFT in Orlando
Titan Motorsports in Orlando
MASE IN JACKSONVILLE---
South Florida Performance in Miami area

And others whom I'n not so familiar with in the Panhandle area as well as between Orlando to Miami

Jeez man, 9 posts...........and you already pissed me off.

That calculator does not take into account a cars torque power-band, tires, the suspension, and how short the gears are.

Any of these all motor guys listed below....

refute the legitimacy of that calculators projections.

nah its cool ... their are so many dynamics involved in getting down the 1320 quick that no calculator is accurate.

I completely agree with your sentiments if he was claiming that he made those times on street tires, even bfg drag radials, would be impossible in a fwd making only 300 whp.

Its amazing what a pair of slicks can do with your 60' times.
