Default Please stop.

Getting sick of getting cars from other shops to fix.

Would also figure since Ls's have been around so long that people would do ok tuning them. I'm getting the idea that the tunes are getting worse up here in the North East. Lately I've seen better tunes from owners buying tuning software and doing it themselves than most of the major shops up here.

Why can't I get all these jobs before the owners get bent at these other shops?

go buy the tuning software and hook up your friends for cheaper. you make your money back and give your LT1 friends a break. IIRC HP Tuners is like 500-600 and figure Don charges what 150-200 per hour to tune? (correct me if im wrong) so you invest $800 at most, everytime someone wants to tune their car charge them $100-200 to use your tuner, have Don do the tune. they made out and you make out.

and also IIRC it doesnt lock the tuner. so you should be able to use it on any car...i know thats how the GTP guys do.

next one that comes to you from a few other shops just ask the owner if he's a winner?
