Chris and team did an outstanding job on my car. Always pleasant to work with. Right after the tuning started, I developed a boost leak - the kind that was seemingly impossible to find. I literally had to pause the process for over a month before I found the ever so slight crack in the bottom of a vacuum hose. To Chris's point, he didn't mind waiting for me to sort things out because he cared about what is best for the car. No need to tune on something that isn't running perfect. And that shows in the results. Only to take another slight break after switching over to e85 to do some other maintenance on it. This tune was a gradual process, but in the end, I am incredibly happy with the results. It just goes to show that good things cannot be rushed.

You just can't beat the service and results from Mellon Tuning. I'll be back next time I need a tune, no need to look elsewhere.

Thanks!!!
Erik

thanks for choosing us to tune the car Erik, you've been great to work with and I appreciate your patience as well while we worked through the minor mechanical issues. As always please send an updated log anytime you feel like it and we'll be happy to make sure it's staying in tip top shape.

You're right Turco, i should have bumped up the smoothing factor on the graph a little, some cars need more than others but 5 is my default starting point. I can put my own car down to 1 in part thanks to the upgraded ignition
