Question Secret Services - Houston??

I've got a few more parts to go before I tune my car and I'm just thinking ahead about where to get a tune. I went to get my car inspected today and after a discussion with a local state inspector in Richmond (he drives a built integra), he told me about this place in Humble called Secret Services and wondered if anyone has had any dealings with them.

A quick yahoo search pointed me to houston-imports forum where I found a thread about them and apparently they do good work but I'm not familiar with the people on that forum. I'd love to take a roadtrip up north to AMS to get tuned but thats kinda far fetched for me. Anyone have any info??

If you still can't make your mind up about Sercret Services in Houston.

Evolution Dynamics is Dallas is your best choice. Kevin pretty much tunes every EVO in the DFW area. He has a great reputation and performs outstanding work. His prices, you can't beat.

http://www.evodynamics.com/

Browse around in the NTEC forum (North Texas Evo Club) for more info about KevinD and Evolution Dynamics. Heck, just start a new thread in the NTEC forum asking your concerns/questions.

It appears that Secret Services has more experience with Honda/Acura, NA tuning.

There is also a TTP signup for them to come to Houston

Cobb has a facility right outside of Dallas. If I was going to be driving or towing, I would go there before I would go all the way to AMS in West Chicago IL. ( I actually grew up near there, but whatever...)

Hey how much did they charge for the install? I have a fuel pump that needs installation and I dont wanna mess with it. It looks like a pain from the how-to.

If you're installing a factory type fuel pump, just yank out the back seat and its right there under that glued down panel. Just make sure you have a large towel handy for when you pull it and the lines so you dont splash fuel on your carpet. That woul stink for days. If you use a hair dryer or heat gun on the glue, it comes up pretty easily.

Well I dont wanna spend money for someone else to install it (its a walbro btw) so i guess im gonna have to bite the bullet and make it a saturday project. This will prolly be my last mod before tuning cuz i hate the smell of gas
