Disappointing tune?!

alot of threads like this are showing up recently, you need to remember the customer is the boss, and the tuner is lucky to have you, if your not happy with the service tell the tuner and get some answers. Any good tuner will AT LEAST do a boost leak test before tuning.

Yea I never felt like I had any input in anythin which is another reason
I'm not thrilled either. Half the business is the workk you do and the other half is customer service! They did do a test n said I had a small boost leak n repaird it that's the only input
I had weather I wanted them to cause there was a charge.

OP I would suggest having the car gone over boost leaks, compression tests, leak down if possible, Make sure timing is correct, etc... So that when your next tuning appt. comes you know she's 100%

The thread will get closed instantly I'm sure. Then there will be 100 folks who state it's the OP's fault. His car is junk, etc...

I'm sure the Tuner will come on here and defend himself shortly. He seems to be a pretty stand up guy although I have no personal experiance with him.
But highly recommend Petey. Thats my dude right there.

Example:
As everyone mentioned already:
PeteyTurbo
CBRD
KP Tuning
OR
Get remote tuned by JohnBradley.
There are too many incredible tuners out there to get a crappy tune these days.
Good luck OP.

Of course you would of had to pay to have the car checked out, but to just give it back to you with no communication is BS...

Your numbers are def on the low side for your mods,But it could be more then just the tune if it wasn't prepped correctly.. One of my tunes also stalled with the AC on smh,I went through 3 tuners in less then two months to find one i liked,So i feel your pain man! Good luck!

When i get some slots open id be willing to tune it for you.. and i will make sure you're happy or refund your $ in full.
on another note, was the car boost leak tested? did you confirm everything was healthy before taking it in to get the tune?
in all honesty, if the person that did it is reputable take it back and give him a chance to fix his mistakes.. food for thought.. if he cares about his rep.. which i know he does.. he will fix it right.

I know this isn't about BASHING, BUT why does the customer (us) have to spend money, get a **** tune, and then have to go spend MORE money elsewhere and the shop just keeps running their piece of **** tunes?
Shouldn't the community be notified? Why defend someone that just sucks on our wallet and we get nothing in return. This just aint fair.
