I am guessing you have an ECUtek system?

I live in Syracuse and can tell you there is nothing here. All of the tuners that were here have closed or moved out of state. I recommend EFI Logics in CT. I have been in contact with them about tuning my car and they have been great. A few track guys I know recommended them to me.

there is a "find a tuner" page on the ecutek site. http://www.ecutek.com/Dealers

Few questions:
1) Using EcuTek or OFT?
2) Are you FI? If so, what's your setup?


Even for most bolt on FI kits & EcuTek, the really good tuners can do an excellent job with an e-tune (vs. on site dyno) unless you have some wild setup. I'm currently working with Xero Limit (formerly Moto East) and Mike is a true master tuner and excellent to work with. I'm not that far from him, but I'm doing an e-tune on my Vortech kit and the whole process has been really seamless.

Ok so for your basic setup I'd consider e-tunes from a well regarded tuner any day over a geographically convenient tuner that you don't know. EFI Logics and Xero Limit are both great bets, I went with Mike at Xero Limit as he occasionally posts on this forum and I really liked his perspective on things (as well as being more reasonable cost wise). Good luck

EFI for the Edelbrock kit. I watched a EFI tuned BRZ with an Edelbrock kit perform flawlessly on track all of 2019.

And they do everything remotely?

No. They tune on their dyno.

Glad to hear. They are a bunch of good guys.

Another option for those willing to travel a bit - VEMS in Colchester Vermont. They do dyno tuning. They do not have their own ECUtek master license because very few people here use ECUtek, it's Cobb Accessport territory. But they can definitely tune if you have the license.
