AMS total Eperience!

Let me just start out by saying that I am usually skeptical of most tuning shops but my cheep !!! Finally went in there to have some installations done. All I can say is that there are many other shops in the U.S. who specialize in tuning and building hardcore machines. If anyone is considering purchasing any parts for there car or having major work done to there precious babies they really need not look elsewhere, The crew at AMS went way past any normal customer service and are super friendly and informative. There fabrication and testing of parts is at a level that I have not seen in the import scene. There dyno tuning and mechanics are the best that I have come across, who go the extra mile and then some to make sure that yes, you the customer are 110% satisfied. As far as tuning I just don't understand why if you live near here you would even think about having your car tuned in a hotel parking lot! So with that said I would like to send an enormous thanks to every body at AMS especially, Ivan, Eric in sales, Tim, and Martin. Thanks guys

I agree. I'm glad I only live about a 5 hour drive away. For me that is close enough to justify letting them and only them tune my car.

Ivan has always been a pimp, even back when he was with Sound Performance. AMS kicks *** for sure, wish they were here on the west coast.

So why dont you tell us something we dont know.

And why would you pay for a hotel flash when there is someone local that charges $80 for a street tune and i havent heard one bad thing about.

AMS is a great shop. Eric is very easy to work with and makes everything so painless. I grabbed a few of their parts and now have everything they make but the intake manifold and fuel system (which I plan to have in due time).

I currently have a engine and race head build going on and they were my first choice and I didn't question it once.
