I've got a Dilemma

hey everyone.. I just got my Vortech SC installed yesterday, it is a used kit off of a 2006 5AT coupe. I put it on my 2004 5AT coupe and everything seems to run fine although i'd like to get it retuned before I get on it. Heres where the problem is, Giles at holyroller can't get me an appointment until september. Any recommendations on another tuner I can go to or just take it easy on the kit?

Probably should've called him a month ago although I didn't know I was even going FI until 2 weeks ago.

Well, if you want to travel there is MRC motorsports in NJ that works on G's and Z's.. or i know a great place here in Stamford called Performance outfitters that deal with really high end cars. They may be able to get you in. Just tell them you know me. or if you are seriouse, send me a PM and ill call the owner and see if he can help you out.

i believe the place your referring to is called Dent Sport (www.dentsport.com). they have a AWD dyno there i i hear they have a pretty good rep. or u can go to Ballistic Motorsports where 617G got his car done up

thanks everyone for the advice.. 888 i'll let you know if i'm willing to make the drive.

As for going to Ballistic, they don't tune cars its the place next door holyroller dyno that tunes them. I was gonna go there but his next appointment isn't until 9\13.

Look up dynojet or dyno dynamics website for the closest facility.
Setup an appointment to do a few dyno runs. Then you can gauge how far off your tune is.

Yeah Dave definately dont get on it on someone elses tune because keep in mind Sports Coupe had an exhaust as well so the tune is going to be off. DSG may be booked but you can try SGP/Boston Dyno in Malden for a tune until you can get to Giles.
