Looking for a great tuner in the Midwest

Hey so I really need a tune done on my car and I'm haven't been able to find someone in two years of looking who will touch my car. I unfortunately live in southern Manitoba and Canada is definitely a dead zone when it comes to rotaries since I haven't been able find anyone who will even get close to my FD. I finally found a shop on the west coast but that's a long 24 hour drive.

Basically I'm looking for a shop stateside to tune my car since it'll be a lot closer and I have way better chances of finding someone competent who will do a good job. If anyone could point me in a direction to a good shop I'd really appreciate it, I figure if I'm making a trip out of it I might as well make it worth it. Thanks in advance, I really appreciate it!

Thanks but I have contacted them already, unfortunately they don't want to tune Power FC's anymore. I'd like to keep mine plus I don't have an additional $1300 on an Adaptronic setup which is what they work on now.

Ahh, I know it is a bit far, but maybe sign up for the Steve Kan tune in June/July here in Chicago. Otherwise you might have to ship your car out to a shop, or find a tuner that does tuning remotely.

That might not be a bad idea. 12h sure beats 24 to the west coast for me. I saw the thread about it, it's definitely something to consider.

Bill might make a meet out of it if we get enough people, so it will be fun.

I think Steven Kan offers remote tuning for the PFC also just an FYI.
