Thanks guys
A few people go out there. I know BR is coming down and doing a few tune's at Doug's dyno power. It's on the evo Facebook page. $300 for the tune and dyno.

I do not have an exact date yet, I'll post it when I do. We have to make arrangements first for all the normal things in life and then set a date. It will for sure be in February.

Just wanted to give an update, I've been asked to only tune stand alone ECU's while I am in Vegas, so if you are in Vegas and want a stock ECU tune, just contact Doug directly. If you need an AEM or Haltech tuned while I am there I'm willing and able.

Yes. Give me a call or stop in and I will refer you.


As for tunes, INSANE SPEED. I will put Mikey up against anyone in terms of making power. Frankly, I'm not sure why anyone would need anyone else to tune in Vegas unless of course they want a budget rate, however we do offer package rates as well if 4-5 guys want to get tuned on the same day. We are fairly booked up however, so please call at least a week in advance to make an appointment.

Most evos here r on stock ecu. I know I am. Unfortunately, the move to just tuning standalone lost u customers...and I almost put up my AP for sale since I want to be tuned as well. Oh well, back to the drawing board.

Thanks for the advice though.

Hey Vegas people! Just wanted to say hi from Michigan. I miss home so much.

Also saw something about doug's dyno. I just want to say that I would deff. recommend him to anyone. He is the only person in Vegas that I would let tune my car.

Couldn't be happier with the tuning he did on my evo

True, and tephra's rom is on AP now too since he's working for them. Not only I can switch with whole new different maps altogether, but I can also switch on the fly without needing to plug in the accessport through pressing the cruise control button... Just like tephra's rom on stock ecu.

Right now, the only thing that would make me switch to open source is the no-lift-shift rom from open source...but I'm looking at the script on that rom and trying to make it work with AP...no, I'm not just gonna plug in the rom to the accessport file if ur wondering, I'm trying to assimilate the rom to the accessport so it would act as a native program just like the on the fly switchable maps that they included from tephra. The only thing is I have to write whole new scripts and commands so it would be that way. If I get burnt out from it from trying to figure it out, then I will switch to open source.

Hopefully ur good to go for the next midnight mayhem.i know for sure I will run on that. I just didn't run today coz I don't like the wind blowing too much, and my tune isn't at 100% yet. Gotta calm down the boost spike and make it to work that it doesn't get out of breath when I hit 6500rpm.

Sucks what happened though man, I was hoping to see u breaking into the 10sec. I know u got it coz of the traps ur making.
