You might as well start the list and start taking deposits now, first come first serve. Otherwise, people will just flake at the last minute like the last tune.

Steve's tuning is great. I gained 20 lb/ft of of torque and my MPG improved to over 22 MPG highway. I got 22.3 MPG on the way from Bay area to Irvine travelling at an average speed over 80 MPH and hitting 130 MPH more than once.

Here is his price structure....

$300 - Piggy back (SAFC, Emanage)
$350 - Normally Aspirated/Stock turbo up to 12psi of boost (pump gas only) 1 map
$400 - Aftermarket turbo up to 20psi of boost (pump gas only) 1 map
$450 - Aftermarket turbo from 16psi - 25psi of boost (race gas and/or auxiliary injection only) 1 map
$600 - aftermarket turbo up to 25psi of boost (pump gas and race gas tune) 2 maps

Dyno time is seperate but im going to try and get us the same rate as last time which was $120 for up to 2 hours of tuning which I think everyone fell into.
