when you spend 4 years, and your income, sacrificing, building an engine....
and then the so called 'best tuner' you put your trust in with your 'baby' just ****s it, even when your instructions were 'not chasing horsepower, just get it running for now' ... |

There are a few out there who have a big name and then rip you blind.
That happened to me, I learned and never returned.

Oh dear, I hope you didn't take it to the same place I initially took my cammed Boss 10 odd years ago- despite what they told me they were totally out of their depth doing anything other than XR6T's and were not particularly pleasant about it either. Persevered with them far too long before changing tuners and he did what they could never have achieved. Best of luck with it, hope it is salvageable.

Commiserations to the OP, I'm another who put too much good money into a trusted automotive business, only to get results that a first year TAFE student would be ashamed of.

Why not let everyone know who it was ?
Then know one else will lose there cold hard. |

Probably need a few more details before you set a lynch mob onto tuner.
