If you ever do decide to get a custom tune go to SWTuning in OKC. He tuned my bros car after Curtis had a hold of it and it never ran better. If i ever get mine custom tuned I will go to him. He writes his own progs and he has a mustang chassis dyno not a **** ant dyno jet. No offense to dyno jet but the mustang dyno is more acurate.

Aren't they shut down? Someone called him last week and he said he was permanently shut down. What was so bad about Kurtis's tune? Kurtis also writes his own tunes and has a dynapac dyno which is even more accurate than a dynojet or a mustang dyno...just curious about the angst...

when he was over on admiral he jacked me and my bro around gave us a crap tune and said there wasn't anything he could do. Then we could never get hold of him. We took the same car same setup to SW and he got her setup with a quickness. I don't know he may have a better setup now but back then he couldn't do much. I do know that the dyno jet adds about 50 or so more horse than you actually have.

The butt dyno is the most accurate.

No offense, but I know Kurtis pretty well now after my rebuild and I find what you are saying pretty hard to believe. I think most on here can agree with me. Kurtis doesn't send ANYONE home unless the tune is correct. He prides himself in doing it right the first time. He has even corrected tunes from other tuners in the state (Tony speak up here) and tunes from other guys in the US just so the customer has the correct tune. WHat was so messed up on your brother's car that you claim he couldn't fix? How long ago was this? Who is your brother?? And no, the dynojet does not add that much more HP. It only adds about 10-12 more not 50.

How much the Dyno jet adds is all relative to how much horse power you have the more inaccurate it is. My Bro is Cory P. he has an 89 Fox. the car died on the dyno cause it was too rich and he couldn't get it started so he rolled it out and said sorry but there isn't anything that we can do. we took it to SW and he leaned it out and she fired right up. It wasn't really all that bad just a little irritated that the car ran worse after he had it and it cost us 500 bucks. all in all Kurtis is a good guy I just wasn't real impressed with the business side. (fellow Mechanical Engineer)

Again, I find you story a tad hard to swallow. I've seen him keep cars for days just to make sure it is right. Are you sure it was Kurtis or were you dealing with Chris from Tulsa Dyno?

You know what to be real honest with you I feel like a fool. I Apologize to KURTIS. It was that weasel Chris. Kurtis was doing the tune but I think Chris might have had something to do with it. I really liked Kurtis cause while my bro was dealing with chris I sat and talked Engineering BS with Kurtis. Sorry if I got you upset Cobra4548. We did get a s*** tune there though. But it is all said and done. no since in crying over spilt milk. So Kurtis has his own Dyno now? what is he charging?
