HKS F-CON V-PRO Texas Tuners and Users

Hello all. I am looking for a reputable shop in Texas that is familiar and experienced with tuning the HKS F-Con V-PRO. I have already checked the HKSUSA site for a dealer listing and sent emails and phone calls, but have not gotten any responses. The shop / tuner must have already successfully tuned Evos running the HKS F-CON V-PRO. I would also like to hear from all Evo owners running this EMS who got tuned in Texas. If you respond, please give me the following information in any order:

1. The shop or tuner name
2. The location
3. How long it took them to tune your car
4. When your car got tuned
4. How satisfied you are with the tune.
5. If you would do business with the shop again.

Your help would be appreciated.

just remember with the HKS ecu, ONLY an authorized dealer can help you if you have problems with it. the only experience i have with one, was taking it off the car and going back to stock ecu to tune the car as 1. the hks couldn't idle smooth, and 2. i couldn't use it. once it was taken off the car idled fine and made great power. it is a lot of money to spend to be attached to a tuner to get any ecu adjustments.

We have tuned a number of Fcon vehicles including Evos, Supras, NSXs, S2000s, Skylines, etc. Give us a shout if you need anything.

Too far unfortunately. I believe he is in Jersey.

For some reason, I can not pullup Jotech's website. PTP and Boostlogic are local. Has anyone on here been tuned by these shops? Feedback would be greatly appreciated.

and the 600 is on race gas... none-the-less, i put a new HTA 35r on that car to replace the blown up 35r it had on it before (jotech finished it, as i was only recruited to installed the transfercase which was thought to be the problem, when it was found to be the turbo). i think the new turbo will make more power then the old custom 35r it had before. the car is absolutely beautiful though. jotech did a killer job on it, i shudder at what it all cost though.

Man this sucks. Is the HKS F-CON that new in the market that no one is really using it? I am surprised that there are not more people using it, considering it's benefits and advantages. The last thing I need is to get something like an AEM EMS that will fail emissions. By the way, thanks for the feedback and referrals. I'll check them out.
