Someone should update the tuner thread with the new info/tuner at Speed1.

He's even crashed at my house in the past on his last epic road trip, you can feel good with him behind the keyboard or welder
+1 Just looking at Brian's FC you can get a feel for the level of detail he goes to.

I think texting Dave/Brian is a better bet.

I was just at Speed 1 on Friday night to tune my FD. Brian did a great job tuning it. Really cleaned up the tune, and picked up a few ponies even with dying turbos. The response is night and day from what it was. to Brian.

Still haven't met any shop as trustworthy as speed1, let me re-frame that. Never met a person so trustworthy as Dave. Long story short after jumping around from shop to shop dealing with money hungry mechanics. I reached a point that I was going to give up and sell my FD, then I end up at KDR now speed1. From the first time I've spoken with him, you can hear the Love he has for rotary. Dave took me in like he knew me for years. Picked up my car from my house in NJ 3 hours away from he's shop. Gave me full details on what had to get done and gave me many great ideas on how to save money on the repair.When he gave me the bill for months and months of work done, it was a jaw dropper. Not sure how he stays in business that's how low the bill was. Dave & his guys rock!! He knows how to keep he's customers coming back with a smile..

Dave tuned my car initially. Retuned some light load issues down low a second time and didn't charge me. Going back this summer for a retune with more boost.

Dave and his shop have been very professional, and put down quality work. He always compliments my car....lol. Always feels good coming from someone who see's so much top level stuff.
