You might give Jim a ring. Super nice and knowledgeable guy!

If you don't mind taking a trip Enzo Racing in long Island would be a good choice!

Keep trying, it's hard to find a good tuner! You might try sending an email.

I tried to get hold of him, left messages etc. never called me back. Not worth the time. Find someone who is dependable.

+1 but he is one of the best! Just no communications!! I hate that. You drop 6-10k on your rx7 & only talk like 3 times


My fc is currently at speed1 (kdr) & i love the best place. Country ride & i get emails all time

There are plenty of others who are also "The Best" and they are reliable.

i went to enzo i went to speed 1... with all but fail and feeding me lies like we dont do our research or something.
Jim at JPR imports has nothing but true words to speak, will tell you how it is and doesnt try to rob you of money. His tune has been nothing but good so far o i cant complain at all... love his work !

Speed1 is a very busy place. It also took a few days to have my call returned, but it was returned by the owner himself. I wasn't home at the time so he left his cell # on my voice mail. No complaints here. Located in Lenhartsville, PA, just off I-78.

i live in 19114, always take my cars to jim @ jpr. he can be hard to get a hold at times but he does great work and gives very fair pricing up front. if he doesn't answer i'd try and stop by in the late afternoon/evening.

i just got tuned by enzo again with my new setup the other day..and he helped me out and got me in because hes a busy man.. yea hes hard to get intouch with... but how many tuners get flown all over the world to tune? not any others im sure!.. so i say its worth the wait... he got my car to 595whp at 24 psi in the first few passes..shes got plenty more to go.. i wont go anywhere else.. and to people that do or talk **** about enzo.... good luck.. but no one can keep up with him on the tuning
