Talk to Mark, good customer service... if your lucky you can see Alex Chen's Lamborghini Murcielago or his New Porshe GT.

Do they do anybody's car? I heard it was only by recommendation that you could get your car tuned by them. Not sure if this is true or not.

Thanks,
Josh

They don't like RX7's, they like Supras. They are the ones that stuffed a turbo Supra engine in a CYM.

I saw a few project 7's on their site so figured that they do tune them. I know their work with supra's is excellent. I was just seeing if anyone actually tried to get it tuned there.

Thanks,
Josh

Hmm, go figure they would rather tune Supra's then 7's. Any idiot can crank up the boost and "tune" a 2JZ, but it takes someone who actually knows what they are doing to tune a rotary. Just my .02 anyway.

Thanks,

Man, good luck on that. You could PM Dcrosby about his experience with the AEM ecu. You will have a hard time locating a shop that could tune the AEM. It is not the best ecu for the FD. I would recommend selling the AEM in favor of the Apexi Power FC.

Good luck.

Or you could really be safe and sell your AEM for either a Haltech E8 or a Wolf 3D ver.4 Either way it's a huge improvement over the AEM and the Power FC. The power FC has a bad habit of switching leading and trailing spark on the decel map. I have seen it happen several times. Though it doesn't happen every time, and as far as I know nobody knows what causes it.
