Top notch. Young is honest and fair. Quality work as well as educating you along the way. He's done a good amount of work for myself and others on the forums.

Well I don't think they do tuning, OFT you just flash your map in..

I would say CSG DT tune with ACE > OFT since you get revisions tailored to your car vs just ots maps, and Zach from DT is awesome to work with

AutoTuned is a great shop though, had my clear bra and my spark plugs done by Young, top notch !

Im pretty sure they'd do it and charge labor. Usually places give small discounts on labor if you purchase part from them.

Im going down to Chromosome Y to get my front half of the car clear bra in about two weeks. If you're interested just give them a call and let them know i sent you and maybe they can work something out for you.

They have their own clear bra that they use. I had one of the 3M ones they had installed on my seibon hood, and it was pretty awesome, didn't fade like some of my other ones I had. Just hit Young up, I'm sure he has options you can discuss

Love the guys at Autotuned
I've gotten header and intake installed by them as well as got trans and diff oil changed by them.
Young is super helpful. He is very knowledgeable and patient with questions.
