I hear good things about Adam over at Spank Time. Hell people here in San Diego travel over two hrs to get their stangs tuned by him.

My valve spring tool is on backorder so I'll talk to him and get an idea of what i'm looking at for tuneing and then just play the wait game.

Sucks to not be able to do it till mid Feb.

At least Feb is still early in the cruising season.

that's sick Adam is 9 miles from me. I know where I'm going, and it seems the popular choice around here.

ST Motorsports

Install and Tune cams - 900
Tune (I'll do the install) - 350
Tune (with nitrous) - 450
Figure out what I've done wrong on nitrous - ?? LOL (I gave up after hitting a wall with a problem)


RET

Install and Tune cams and plates - 1200
Tune (I'll do the install) - 400
Figure out what I've done wrong on nitrous - ?? LOL (I gave up after hitting a wall with a problem)


I've ultimately decided on installing EVERYTHING thats on order and then have someone look at the nitrous kit when I take it to the shop. I will most likely take it to RET as towing the car will cost me more than the difference in tuneing cost.

Anyone know if the delete plates will toss a code AND go into limp-mode or just throw a code?

thanks
jake
