Ecutek tuner in GTA

Anybody know if there are any Ecutek tuners in the GTA?

I wish there were.

I haven't come across any yet. I'm going to be getting a cable/tune in the spring, but to flash anyone else's car they would still need a license since it's tied to the VIN.

Their website looks kinda dodgy. Where/how did you find them?
Also, if the twins have exploded on the Subie scene why haven't these people made themselves known here or on the Ecutek tuners list?
Really want to see/hear a car that has a Visconti/Perrin/FA20Club tune. If I lived near a good shop I'd try and do business there.

Update: looks like Lachute in QC are the only tuners/dealers in Canada unless thee are ones not listed. Hmmm, summer road trip?

neetronics has been around for a long time, and for a while had the only AWD dyno in the area.

As the poster below you said, they've been around for years. I personally know one of the tuners there, Andy, from another club I'm in.

I'm not sure why they haven't come around here. I could only speculate.
