Want my honest opinion, Devin is among the best of tuners of the 4g63 platform. I wont lie, there were some things I didnt like my very first time going to Boostin back in 2011, but guess what, I CAME BACK haha. I know Devin knows his **** when it comes to tuning, so I trust him only for the tuning on my car right now.

I did some tuning with Tom, in between, and it was ok, but it was frustrating on getting a hold of him sometimes. Your tune could take a week or more to complete sometimes, whereas with Devin, take it up there and its done by the end of the day, as long as no parts explode, **** out etc lol.

My car on e85 runs like a champ right now. When Devin was tuning it, he noticed the cutting out up in the higher rpms I was having. He took the time to switch out my cop with the cop that was on Kristins evo.

After figuring out that my cop wasnt the issue, it was actually valve float, tuning stopped. Car still made great power, and now that I put in the new valve springs, Im going back again in the spring for the finishing touch on my race map.

Look around this forum, there are tons of shops that have great praise, then there is always some bad rep stuff about them too. They are businesses and it sucks its this way, but you cant please everybody, sorry. Someone always has something to ***** about.

I see a lot of good things about strictly. Never had my car there, my buddy did, and he is taking his car to Boostin this spring. His car has a random mid throttle cutout, so he is gonna take it to Devin this time.

He would love to get tuned by AMS, as that was the tune on the car when he bought it. BUt as we all know, AMS is past the evos now in general. As stated, they will still tune some of their shop built cars, then they will do stock ecu, very minor bolt on cars as well, but even they recommended Devin when my buddy called.
