MCE dyno tuning

Hello, anyone have experience with them? They tune a ton of cars and I hear a lot of good things about them In the piston world. Owner also claims he has tuned around 12 rx7s with no complaints. Seems like a good place to get a tune. Anyone heard of them? Their located at thunder hill.

Bob Maybell (the M in MCE) had the turbo 12a RX2 on the cover of modified back in 2010. He's super helpful and knowledgeable regarding all things rotary. He's helped me out with a few issues at the track, too. I don't know any of the rotary cars they tuned, but I've seen tons of cars in their shop. Everything from prototype cars to lemons abominations.

FFtec says they dont tune Rx7s and power FCs so thats out the window.

Ill ask for Bob Maybell and see if hes any good. I emailed them and a guy named Kevin Murray has been emailing me. He says he has done 13 Rotaries so IDK. We need someone in the Bay Area. Dont have the time to learn everything about tuning, I know the basics though.

Start up a thread and get at least 5 people to commit and you can fly Steve Kan in from Texas. Steve has been to the Bay Area many times in the past and has been able to tune over 10 vehicle (rotary&piston) per weekend. That's how knowledgeable and efficient he is with tuning rotary motors.

I actually ended up towing my car to LA and getting tuned. Definitely was well worth the trip.
