Hey turco, I finally swapped my fuel pump and my car is being appraised on wednesday so hopefully we can tune it before it goes to the body shop. I'll give esp a call tomorrow to see when their dyno is available and then I'll call you and let you know.

there really are no tuners in area shops i would recommend, IVEY is your best bet but he is hike. What are your mods? You could also do Mellon or there are local forum guys that could probably tune it.

I am looking to get dyno'ed and determining from that if I should get a re-tune.

I'd like to install new injectors / 10.5 hotside as well. I'll do that myself, I just was wondering if they are at all decent with dyno tuning, or if I should just stick with Mellon.

K&N Intake / B&M Short Shifter / Apexi Turbo Timer / Apexi GT Spec Cat-Back & Downpipe / Megan SS EM / Megan O2 Housing / HKS 272 Cams / ARP Head Studs / Walbro 255 / Apexi S-AFC Neo / Aeromotive FPR / Hallman MBC @ 27 PSI / Defi-Link Imperial 2 Boost, Oil, EGT / AEM Wideband O2 / Exedy Twin HD Clutch / Gizzmo Shift Light / Whiteline Front Roll Center Adjustment Kit / BLOX Front Motor Mount / ETS 3.5" Intercooler + Piping / HKS SSQV BOV / Cusco Oil Catch Can / ETS Upper Rad Pipe / Mellon Tune

And, I would like to add FIC 1050 injectors and the 10.5 hotside. Oh, I love Mellon, I just wanted to get a dyno and be done with it instead of e-mailing back and forth.

Its tough to get a true response to your inquiry. You will recieve both POSITIVE and NEGATIVE feedback. This (your ques/topic) has been discussed _MANY_ times. And not to be rude, but if you search the key words in your question, you should find your answer(s). We need not to debate about any of it in this thread to keep things clean and kosher. If you are in their area, you could always stop in and meet and talk the guys and you can get a feel that way.

Thanks
