My car was dynoed at Ultimate/MachV. I did the tuning myself with Brian doing the driving and giving me his advice. I would direct people to hit them up if they wanted to dyno their car and have it tuned but I also urge people to learn to tune themselves.

To bad I'll be in Tokyo then, but when I get back I wanna see what they can do with my car now that I have my new intercooler sprayer as well. I have heard nothing but good things about them and are one of the few in the area that has an AWD dyno around here, I had to haul my car all the way up to MD at Extreme b4. I will have to give them a ring when I get back to the end of the month.

hey jason, afc is really easy to tune. if you shell out $300, you can get a wideband a/f gauge from plx. then you can tune your car all day without paying other ppl to do it for you. tuning does get expensive. i just had my wastegate dumptube plumbing done at ultimate. came out pretty good and it works. also, i'm a skeptic when it comes to shop tuning my car. they make you sign waivers and i've had shitty experience at autothority when i went there for tuning. $450 for nothing. should have known better, but back then ultimate didn't have dyno and inline didn't know what afc hack was. at least inline told me that they didn't know, at autothority, the tuner had no idea.

but i'd definitely get a wideband a/f gauge if i were you. then tune the car on the street with afc. easy to do.

EDIT: i saw the altima there too. looks badass, but i'd ditch the woodtrim i was the owner.

APEXi gives you instruction manuals on how to tune your car. I've seen someone mess around with the SAFC 1, it was pretty cool. Seems to help a lot on turbo cars.
