Toronto Tuners

Hello!

Recently acquired a 2006 Evo IX RS, it's stock with the exception of a Injen intake kit. Looking to fit a 3inch exhaust in a couple of weeks. Would a tune be suggested for such minimal mods?

Also, I'm in Toronto, any suggestions of where I should go or a tune?

Thanks for your help!

No tune required.....although a tune can always unlock more power. You also have one of the best tuners in the world at your disposal... Magnus Motorsports...so you're set.

At minimum flash whatever potentially bad tune is already in the car back to stock. A maf rescale is always recommended when you are not running stock intake/intercooler/charge pipes. A tune isn't necessary but would be nice. And magnus may be one of the best tuners but he's also one of the most expensive.

If you're the best, you're not gonna be cheap....just saying. Thats the last thing i worry about when doing mods or looking for a tune.

Yea but Marco is totally taking advantage of the market by charging that much. He's quoting $800 a tune. His tunes are not twice as good as Emery's or Buschur's. And I have my own opinions about his tuning anyways. I just don't think its worth the money he asks for it. But hes overloaded with business regardless so what does he care.

And no I really do not skimp on spending $$ for quality parts. But I don't pay for hype or demand, I pay for quality only.
