There is a shop in K.C.
Check them out, I haven't had any personal experience with them, but they do have an AWD dyno.

??? VERY simple to use, select a map, hit the button, and you're pretty much done. Otherwise there are a few good email tuners on this site such as Mellon.

Do you have an MR or GSR?

I'm on the KS Side of KC. I've used Modified and they're good guys.

I definately recommend them for GSRs but the MRs are a little tricky when you get to the higher horsepower.

I still recommend them for up to around 350hp but after than, try kozmic.

If you have questions, feel free to pm me.

What evo is your? im at Ft. Riley as well. I have the GG Evo 9. Im up on Custer hill. I have evoscan and virtual dyno on my comp. if you get the access port i can help you out as far as getting the scan done so you can do an email tune.

my car idles around 1k and when i let off the gas it kinda stays around the same RPM, like when im backing up. ive owned a turbo honda before and it pulled real hard in the higher RPM it seems like the evo kinda flatens out after 5500RPM, normal? compaired to a fully built B16a2?
one last thing, the accessport can some one elaborate more on this? cost 500 bucks? and you can pull a map off the web and upload it to your ECU? thanks in advance im new to the Evo sceen
