Well I made up my mind. I went with ETS, recirc. downpipe, HFC and V2 Quiet. It's been kind of a pain in the a** due to being on deployment and the huge time difference with me and Michael at ETS. But from what I hear my payment has went thru, So I got to give it up to Michael! Thanks man! I do have a AP to run stage 2, but I'm sure getting it tuned with a dyno would be the best idea. Which comes to my next question. Any tuners around Oklahoma City or Tulsa area?

I think Abel Racing in Midwest City says they can tune anything...but personally I drive to Evo Dynamics in Dallas. You won't be disappointed

Thats funny because I have a friend here who recommended Abel Racing in Midwest City (hes from OK). I'm from Fresno, CA so I don't really know any one in Oklahoma but that is where I live now. Since your from OK, do you guys have any meets out there?

I live just south of OKC. I took my Evo 8 to Abel Racing once just because it was an emergency where I needed to tow my car somewhere close. I had a spark plug blow out and take the threading in the head with it. They tapped it out and put a helicoil in, had it all set in a day and didn't charge much at all. They seem like good guys, just I would take it to an Evo expert given the choice. They have a really knowledgeable DSM guy there, and I have heard of at least one built Evo to come from there, and I haven't really heard anything about their Evo tuning, but I wouldn't call them experts. I also don't know how much Evo X experience they have. And they only have a 2wd dyno, so tuning from them would be a street tune.

TLDR version, don't be afraid to take your car there if you have an emergency and need to get the car somewhere to get sorted out ASAP, but given the option I personally would take it to the experts.

Evo Dynamics labor/tuning prices are VERY reasonable as well. It's not unlikely you'll save money getting anything done there even factoring in the gas for the drive down.

As far as local meets go, I don't personally know of any but a guy PM'ed me recently with the details on some. I'll PM you what he told me.
