Faith in the greater good I guess. Lol

No, I believe topics like this should be talked about in a profesional and respectful manor. Dick measuring can and should be done elsewhere.

I'm not sure where that is. If there are no local tuners look to doing email flashes. Cheap alternitive and pretty safe, not ideal for best results but it's better than nothing. IMO

I am tantalized by this topic. I appreciated the post Mr. Smith but there seems to always be this inevitable virtual shouting match (or dick measuring in your case lol).

I liked reading your post because it was very objective and wasn't bias or slamming people. That was nice to see.

Well Mr. Smith is right about everything he said in this article. I will toot his horn since he won't he is quite knowledgeable about the Evo and a key resource for Az evo owners. A tuner is someone you have to trust and has to be reliable and dependable. With a strong knowledge of you and your driving habits. Pick wisely its your car and the tuners reputation on the line. Go out get tuned and learn what a tune can do for you.
