Honestly - who cares about dyno's or 1/4 mile times??

Heads up racing - arm drop and spotters at the finish - DONE!!!

Fantasy racing is just stupid...I can make my car do 14's, 13's or even in the 12's in the quarter - it's up to my foot in the end, my tire, and my launch - and maybe a side bet here and there

You'll be happy with Extreme...they installed my Vortech when I had my G...I would have someone else tune it though.

Yep, most races are won in the first 60 feet.

+1000000 - they are not tuner of these cars any. The know nothing about the SS software.

Go to Shawn Church - hands down the best and most experienced in the area - I think!!

Also - did you all see the write up he had in SCC this month - for the Acura NSX project car? He really got some great kudo's and spotlight in that article.

Just keep in mind - dynapack dyno's will show you lower results, than say a DynoJet. I have had Shawn tune my car, and then I have taken it to a Dynojet shop for baseline runs...about a 15% difference.

No, that a dyno in Texas. I lived in Torrance when Shawn tuned my car originally. There's a funny story behind that vid...to make it short, I was invited to a Domestic car performance shop to dyno my car against other Mustangs and other Ford products...I won! That's right, an import won and do you know what the prize was? They thought for sure that a Mustang would win, so the prize package included a full Royal Purple oil chnage and a black t-shirt that read "IMPORTS SUCK"...I wore that to every car show and event my car was apart of just to tell the story...BeerViper now owns my G and he loves it.
