I'm learning to tune. I want to do it professionally and want all the practice I can get on other people's evos. If you need help or want a email tune pm me and all I ask in return is if you like my tune let me know and let others know about me!

 

Typically learning tuners pratice on THEIR OWN cars. How are you planning on ensuring your would be volunteers are covered in the event that you damage their cars?

 

I could see the line for this being MASSIVE!!

 

I'm learning to tune, let me blow up your car.

This is a recipe for disaster

 

At least he was honest, some pro "tooners" will be at same skill level but charge you money.
To the OP, your gonna have to use your own car for practice.

 

I'm good at what I do and I'm not new to it and I've tuned friends cars locally but I want to encounter more vehicles and more obstacles and mainly I want testimonials from people I help to show what I can do to the shop I'm applying at. Tunung seems to be hard to break into career wise and the shop recommended tuning more cars and have a portfolio of sorts of what I've done with before and afters of the maps and feedback from the owners of the vehicle. As we all know more cars more weird problems to sort out that not all cars have.

 

if your friends cars drive well, put the hurt on people, then those cars will speak for your skills and bring in potential more customers to tune... if that is not happening, it is going to be hard for you to have someone let you tune there car for free so that your portfolio gets bigger

 

That's what I've been trying to do. Thank you for the advice! That's how I got the customers to begin with. a friend loved how mine ran after I tuned it on speed density and wanted the same and I did there's and other people had me do tunes to. I've been busting my *** trying to get a chance by a shop so I can do something I love for a living there just arnt many tuning places here in phoenix so it's hard.

 

By portfolio of cars I would be willing to say that they need more than an Evo tuner. Even the Evo 9 is 10 years old now.

I'll play though, shoot me a PM.

 

If you are good enough, word will get around. There's tons of tuning in Phoenix, or at least there was when I lived there a few years ago. Most people that want to do it professionally will do it on the side as a side business. Word of mouth and posting on local forums and you'll get a solid amount of business after a while if your pricing and work is good. You have to have the ability to tune multiple types of cars, as well as doing work to support the tunes, like installing exhausts or injectors or tuning software, etc. Good luck!

 

I have not heard back from him since the other day. Maybe this thread will work as a reminder.

 

He is currently tuning my car on SD. I'll post feedback when it's complete. Bolt on 9 with 91 oct. Not too extensive.

 

Be extremely cautious...

 

i need a little help

 

He is very knowledgeable. I've been tuning my car for a while now and he definitely is helping me make tweaks to my tune. Typical Evom trolls have nothing better to do but to bash someone. The guy is offering free help to people who want help tuning their own cars, nothing wrong with that. I've been around Evos for 12 yrs and I can definitely vouch that he knows what he is doing.
