Been researching (casually) for a tuner over a year and these guys are real tuners that know Subaru's. But if you notice they don't really promote e-tuning. The base kit is all the equipment unlocked for a local tuner to use with a dyno.

I corresponded with a top Australian tuner who refuses to e-tune no matter how much money you offer.

As far as Moto-Mike I heard a rumor that he doesn't have a dyno (probably not true, can anyone comfirm?)

I am waiting till I can find a local tuner who can tune with my tatrix cable and that open software (on a dyno.)

There is moto mike in east

Where do I go
Have money to spend
There are commas in my account balance but no one worthy as an ecutek shop at this point near me in az

I haven't tried to convince you. In fact, it's job that I don't have the time to do. I'm sure you can find someone to take it on. Just be prepared to leave it when them for some time.

I have parentheses in my account balance. That's good?

Drift-Office did a good job for my 6AT. If you want something perfectly dialed in, you'll need an on-site dyno visit. Maybe consider a road trip?

Yeah a road trip for sure, the question is to WHERE?

Long road trip and if one little thing is missed another long wrong road trip. I think really getting tuning for these cars are for those on the west coast, retirees, and trust fund owners.

Anyway I do not have a problem tuning just about anything right now. Usually anything crazy will take about a day or two at most now.

I will be going through emails and messages tomorrow and catching up before next week.

Cheers,

No worries I know you're busy

I'm ready to plan and secure my dyno slot with a deposit, and I mean that as I will be driving over from az, so call me for sure

I'm running a custom Perrin tune, but I need to refine the e85 maps, what I have works well but there is room to assess and improve parameters

Want to switch out ebcs for a ecutek driven meth solution, aqua mist and ecutek have a plan

I don't know anyone whose done it yet but Mervin can walk us thru it

My cousin is in Costa Mesa so I'm coming to you

You have a good reputation and I need a tuner who can look at my ride with a fresh set of eyes

There is a meth kit installed and I need some help for you and ecutek to take full advantage of my install and spend some time dialing it in.

Look fwd to hearing from you
Thx

I can move it but cant accelerate or else you get a loud knocking sound from the internal motor. Which i found out it was the pistons today.
