Tuner Needed near northern California!!!

Okay I've got a '93 FD with a single turbo setup. I've got an AEM and APEXi Power FC EMS and am tired of seeing her sit. I have a lot of other after market parts in her as well. So I'm looking for the best tuners. Preferably ones in California. More specifically northern Cali but I'd be willing to haul it some place a few hours away as long as their rep is great. If anyone can help point me in the right direction I'd greatly appreciate it.

I think you might be in the worst locations in the U.S. for rotary shops. Socal has quite a few shops and Washington has one or two which puts you right in the middle.

I wish there were more because I know I would have some business for them as well.

Yea I was considering ffrec. One of my buddies took his evo there and had nothing but good things to say about them. A bit pricey but what do you expect in this area. Didn't no they did a rotor tune though. I'm gonna have to give them a call. Thanks for the heads up

steven khan is one of the best tuner for rotary in north california. in his last post he mentioned a something about a group tune early next year if you could wait that long.

I've driven by a Rotor Shop in Campbell, CA, but I don't know much more than that. I just got a 94 Roller that I"m going to be building so I will stop by and talk to them.

I'll let you know if they do tunning, I know they do builds.

Funny, they don't even mention anything about tuning on their own website, that's enough for me to go elsewhere, just a few hour drive to someone else instead

Not sure if Paul still provide this service, but Rotorsport will do rebuilds and load base maps (pfc's mainly) for you to get the motor broken in. As for tuning, Paul used to send his customers to the Steve Kan group tunes when they were being held at Tech 3. Seems like the activities of rotaries has died down a bit, I haven't seen any group tuning sessions lately.
