You don't have a backup of your old tune?! They might charge you less if they had a starting point....

Devin at Boomba Racing- He's a great guy and does great work!

I've also heard a lot of great things about Kunal. I believe that his screenname on here is inco9nito99

AMS will probably do a good job but they're a little more expensive and I personally wasn't real impressed with their tuner the last time I spoke with him.

100 percent agree for aem the pricing is 3x as expensive as stock ecu flashes. I know plenty of guys with 1000 dollar tunes from ams and their cars like jackstands more than pavement. Im not impressed. I went to ams once for some parts and they kicked *** tuning and instillation not so much

Hi there!

I am sure we can help you out. The pricing for an AEM from complete scratch is $900. I'll guarantee we aren't the cheapest in the area, but I'll also guarantee that we are the best in the area. If you aren't looking for the best possible AEM tuning with the best drivability, then your options open up alot.

We charge alot for tuning for a reason. Our schedule is very full for a reason, and we set alot of records for a reason. We are also installing a second dyno here for a reason. I'm not sure what other issues you may have seen or heard, but I can assure you we are at the top of our game here at AMS and customer service and support are number one.

I look forward to an opportunity to work with you, should you change you mind.
