Zach does tuning through @The Racers Line. Closest that specializes in the twins.
A normal Subi tuner will not be able to tune as well as someone who knows these cars |

If you really don't want to drive that far I would also suggest a remote tune done by James at HRI. Not saying Snail will blow up your car but getting gains from the dual injection system on this car has proven to not be easy. Most Subaru tuners aren't really in the FRS/BRZ picture because of it. But it's your car and your money. |

Zach is one of the best tuners on this platform, and he can be an hour away from you.. that doesn't sound too bad to me!

Have Zach tune it at The Racers Line, get tacos from Taqueria Los Gallos while you're there, and all your dreams will come true.

Check the Sac86 facebook. I only know of one person who went to them. Not sure if there are enough dynos out there from them to know how they did really.

I'd highly recommend Zach and Neal at the Racersline.

Can't say anything on cost. I run OTS tunes on an OFT so I don't have experience first hand. I know it depends on how complicated your setup is though and dyno time isnt always cheap

Zach flies up to Concord every so often when there's demand.
It's expensive, my tune was $1100 (4 hours of dyno time) but the throttle mapping and drivability improvements alone are worth it. So much better than what I had from DT before (street tune by Zach also, but on a DT base map). And the 340whp isn't bad either |
