I was also really glad to hear the good things about HP tuners, because i recommended it to a friend who was looking for a stock ECU tuning solution. I was trying to find something comparable to our ecuflash and it looked pretty good but I didn't have any experience with it.
Yes, we are on the same page : ) I am going back today to film Part 4 and will continue to document the entire journey...little things included! Help me spread the word on the West Coast my friend

You SRT is in good hands! Adam does amazing work. Recently moved out of state before I could do the last bit of work to my Evo. I hope he will do a remote tune, if not I am shipping my Evo to him. His work is top notch, and he builds some nasty Jeeps. Looking forward to seeing the end results.

That is great to hear! My interactions with Adam thus far have been great and giving me access to the process is even better

lookin good, has Adam considered building jigs to mass produce these kits, or does he like custom building each one?

A little welding trivia, the reason A/C is used on aluminum is because an oxide layer builds up on the surface of aluminum very quickly and the alternating current creates a cleaning action that breaks up that oxide layer. This is why only tig is used to weld aluminum, you cannot use A/C with mig or stick.

Thank you. Appreciate the knowledge as well. Adam has jigs for a couple things, but he is not looking to sell kits. He wants to build cars/trucks. I asked him that off camera. He likes building things and the art of fabrication I think.
