Feels great! Runs smooth, especially at above average speeds. Impressed.

Alex made several recommendations, and will be going back after changes are made.

Any particular reason you've gone with a custom tune over something like BM3 or MHD? I've been pretty happy with BM3, but I am using an off-the-shelf map.

My decision was based on reputation and results. Also, the ability to speak with the tuner, in person. Alex is a very detailed and proud gentleman. He had more questions for me, than I did for him. Discussed mods (present and future), asked about any special tune needs, driving style, etc... He road tested my vehicle on more than one occasion, tenaciously studied the data, and made appropriate adjustments. It is different car, a joy to drive. I should have had this done a long time ago. Very happy with results.

$750 is a lot for a stage 1 tune. It's not even a custom tune either. You're looking at $900 for a custom tune from them $$$$
