If Steve Kan isn't available, where do you get your car tuned?
So I'm going to be getting a rebuild soon as well as adding AI and I am looking around to find a shop in NorCal to get the car tuned. I know Steve is the tuner for our car, but when he isn't available and you guys need a tune, which person/shop do you go to to get your car tuned?

I've contacted Ben over and over and over. Sometimes he responds, sometimes he doesn't. He's actually supposed to do my rebuild. He took my information down about a month and a half ago when we came in contact and he said that he has a 2 month wait for rebuilds and I said I'm in no rush, I can wait 2 months to get it done and I haven't heard from him since. I've called, texted, voicemail, etc. Likely will go with Larson's Rotary.
And I want to know who can tune, because if I add injectors and all these other parts, I want to get the car to have a safe conservative tune so I can break in the engine correctly with the "extra" mods that I'm adding. But I'm just going to end up doing mods that won't force me to retune and just keep the Steve Kan tune for the break in period.

Steve will be available in San Jose as soon as we get the fifth person in. All 4 of us already paid and ready to roll.
I got my FD tuned with Steve last time he was here. He will be available. it is no IF here :-)

Just throwing this out there....I say we get a group dyno tuning session down for Karack. That way I can make his *** come up to Norcal and he can tune numerous people's cars on the dyno. WAYYY cheaper than Kahn.

My car will probably be ready in a month or two to get tuned. Just got the new engine/setup running and now I'm installing my water injection kit. Once that is on I gotta drive some miles to break the motor in and then I'll be looking to get a tune.
