Tuner will blame the engine builder and mechanic, engine builder will blame the tuner it's the circle of blame game. Just be careful of a shop telling you they warranty their engine because in reality they won't. I could of had a stock pile of 6-8 used FA20's for the money I wasted on my 2 built motors.
Well it was completely all under one house. Not like even then a shop will accept responsibility and front a repair/replacement.

You've blown 2 built fa20's? Were you going for some big numbers or keeping things reasonable. I'm at 420 wheel, 10.5 compression, 85. Trying to keep things dialed back for longevity.
I feel your pain brotha.
