Tuner Recommendations

[EVILutionVIII]

I know TTP has a good rep, but if I can avoid driving 5 hours to FL that would be nice. I've heard good things about dyno4mance as well but not sure if they have enough experience with the FP red/Meth to get me to the numbers I need. Any recommendations for an experienced local tuner with a good rep?

[BlewByYouEvoVIII]

What numbers are you looking for? We have done that setup before.

[EVILutionVIII]

I'm looking for about 450 to the wheels without being on the ragged edge.

[Evolvedgti]

I know you said you would want to not drive 5 hours, but how close are you to Memphis. Mellon is a great tuner, very personable, and you'll get your numbers. Im at 430/380 with out meth.

[ultm8mind]

I was tuned at TTP, but I hear Top Speed and Forged are decent. I don't think I am going to ride to Orlando to tune it again. I doubt it.

[EVILutionVIII]

I'm about 8 hours from Memphis according to google maps. If I have to make the drive to Orlando, then I guess thats the nature of the beast. I was originally going to go with TopSpeed, but their rep isnt as good as it used to be.

[BlewByYouEvoVIII]

We can tune it for you, but just keep in mind we have a low reading dyno so you probably wont hit those numbers on our dyno. We did a red last year and it made 390whp on 93 on our dyno dymamics. It typically reads abour 10-15% low. I would estimate that car would have made 420ish maybe a tad more on a dyno jet.

To be honest I hate playing the numbers game because every dyno reads differently and there are way too many factors that play into the number you put down. I think you would be very happy with the tune :)

Which company are you representing?

[EVILutionVIII]

Disregard my last post, I just read your signature :)

[EVILutionVIII]

I'll be contacting you guys soon to schedule an appointment.

I got a question. Is it okay to re-tune my car?

[BlewByYouEvoVIII]

Sounds good, I look forward to speaking with you :)

I got a question. Is it okay to re-tune my car?

Of course, we recommend you retune the car whenever it is not current with the modifications you have on the car.

[EVILutionVIII]

Question for ya: Is your tuner familiar with OpenECU's tuning software ECUflash? If so, does he have a serial cable to connect to my wideband for datalogging? Also, do you have an option to road tune vs dyno tune? Just curious :)

[blkonblk2red]

^ recommending touringbubble... he's on the forums pm him :-D i was tuned by him good guy!

[Drill_Sergeant]

mellon does a great job if you have a tactrix cable and willing to do it on the road.

he got me 403/338 DLL on my 50 trim @ 25psi on pump gas.

You only need a Tactrix if you are doing the remote tuning. He has a cable if you go see him. I know becuase i have been tuned twice by him, and I don't have a cable.

I have also heard good things about Touringbubble.

Yes, on 8/9s we usually tune with ECUflash. We do have a taxtrix cable as well. We usually will do a dyno tune first and then road test the car after. With a dyno that you can add load to it simulates the way the car behaves on the street, although not perfect. In our experience it has proved to be the best way to tune cars. :)

Hey Ryan,

how much to tune my car with an AEM? It was tuned by Dyno4mance a while back with the stock 9MR turbo but since i put the turbokit on it hasn't been retuned and its running extremely rich.

i guess i was just assuming he wasnt going to drive anywhere.

[Evolvedgti]

Only takes me 5 & 1/2 hours averaging 82 MPH.

Such hatred? I'm a pretty awesome guy if you get to know me.:mad:



























Naw, I am fucking with you.:D

[rossdaddy]

Mase Engineering in Jacksonville did an outstanding job on my X. Great price to boot.

[em1toevo]

^ I remember when he first started tuning. He is an amazing tuner!

[GoBoost]

Me and Evil live in the same town.... we're 2 hours south of atlanta (below macon)

Thanks Joey.

If you have any questions, I'm on the forum daily.

TouringBubble,

I'm at Albany GA.Do you think we can arrange something so can you tune my car? If so how much? I was thinking about tuning it myself but i don't want blow my sh*t up.

[bomjoon]

drive to ttp for meth?nah...

you can get meth anywhere nowdays... :P

depends on who you talk to i guess... i heard now they come to your house with the stuff.

TouringBubble,

I'm sure we could work out something. I'm not in Albany often, but I do have family in the area. I don't have any trips planned soon though.

Cost would depend on method of tuning. If you have a Tactrix or EvoScan flashing cable, I can tune you remotely which is less expensive. Travel to Albany would be around $250 plus the tune fee, or you could travel here. You are welcome to e-mail me at matt@projecttuning.com with your mod list and preferred tuning method (remote or in-person) and we can discuss a final cost.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Joey, I think they were saying that Scott tunes a lot of cars on meth, which is true.

[bomjoon]

i was saying you can get meth here in GA locally.

I am 100% satisfied with Matt as my tuner! Takes his time and gets her moaning just right

Nice! That's exactly how I imagine my engine sounds...:cool:

My hat goes off to Scott...he achieved exactly what I asked for and made me feel like I was his only customer. Would definitely recommend TTP.

[GoBoost]

NICE dude! congrats!

[Evolvedgti]

Nice numbers man! Just for reference
My EVO made 430hp @ 7359 rpm, 380 lbft@ 5078. No Meth straight BP 93

You've got a good 1000 rpm on my torque. I KNOW its nasty now! Great Job!

Its time for an engine build. Scott said one of my piston rings is worn which is causing some blow by. Aso, the meth kit was giving him some trouble. Made 421 on pump at 25psi and only gained 30p with meth. His recommendation was move to 100% meth instead of 50%. Will likely do that once the engine gets built.

[Evolvedgti]

Doing Bored .20 over, or 2.3?

[EVILutionVIII]

Doing Bored .20 over, or 2.3?

I was considering a 2.3 initially and still might go that route but for now, my mind is telling me stay 2.0. Which ever way I go, Scott will be doing the build.

[Evolvedgti]

This isnt you is it? They seem to be ragging the guys choices.

Sadly, yes. I posted my reply on EvoM.

[GoBoost]

Wow. I posted my 2 cents on that thread. I can NOT believe that dude posted that. Perhaps he was thinking he was helping, but he was SO disrespectful to you.

Even if he was truthful about some parts, that is no way to talk about a customer.

[em1toevo]

Looks like a nice build. I'm glad you finally got her running right. I've heard TTP is a great shop.

[GoBoost]

hah. Im gonna get banned on evom because of this post, I just know it. Oh well.

[EVILutionVIII]

Its cool, GoBoost...I took it as constructive criticism, even with the title and contents printed in the manner they were.

Indeed, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and a lot of people will have mixed feelings on the thread in general. The way I see it, if my experience has educated even one person, then it was absolutely worth it.

As you guys have seen in my previous posts, I specifically wanted no more than 450hp and thats what I got. Now chance had it that based on my modifications, that's what they could safely get me.

As far as getting banned for your comments, I dont think so bro. You didn't step out of line at all, you're just speaking your mind. ;)

[Evolvedgti]

I didnt know you had 92k. impressive. Have you had it since new?

Yup, bought her back in early 04 from SouthCoast Mitsubishi when I was living in Los Angeles.

[GoBoost]

Well, as long as you're happy is really what matters... I did get an infraction from it... I think because in the first post i called him a jackass... haha...

I guess no one wants to go against the masses with me on that and call it out of line. Oh well =)

You're not wrong, bro -- it was harsh! And your loyalty is inspiring. I think what IS wrong is that you got an infraction for speaking your mind. :mad: This is why I rarely post on EvoM.

I would have been there with you. but............. Im tuned by Chris of Mellon tuning, and TTP has a hard on for him. If I had jumped in, with my sig could have been seen as 'fanboi' vendor bashing. I wouldnt want to hurt some one elses biz over a few words. I simpl posted it here cuz it seemed familiar.

thanks guys, saw mention of evoatlanta on another site, did a search for "mellon" and found 22 hits, glad to see people are interested in being tuned by us or way into big boobs one :eek: either way that makes it a pretty cool site :D

[shunderwunder]

Heard noting but good things abot you Mellon, but I thik I'd still prefer threads about big boobs :D

[shunderwunder]

I'll agree that that thread was harsh and probrobly could have been worded a little better but It was informative. I just did'nt see why other people were upset when you were ok with it. I actually plan to go there when I'm back on the road for my MAF-T Pro tuning.
