New evo owner...

what is the local shop of choice to get a tune?
I'm still doing research on which steps to do 1st in the upgrade path but a tune is defiantly needed soon since the X's run so rich and it will rid me of the 5800 rpm hesitation.

I am pretty sure you will not find anyone local tuners for a X, your best bet might be to give DTM a call (they are located in NOVA).

Other places- All Aspects in Chesapeake and Millenium in Portsmouth. Both have tuned 8 and 9's.

To newcomer81, I would be careful who you use around here for a X tuner. No one here has much X tuning experience. CBRD, turbotrix, and even xtremeboost are worth the drive.

I heard some cars meet up at freedom car wash on s. independence but I have never been out there. I have seen a few evo owners at the autox events but I need to try to meet up with more.

i've been to the freedom car wash meet...it's about 10 cars or so (i've seen an evo there, a silver one, had carbon fiber hood --- i think it was an VIII...)....there's all kinds of cars there, seen some scions (team scikotik, or however it's spelt)...there were street bikes up there last saturday...it's nothing spectacular, but people meet up there and talk....

Maybe I am wrong, but I am pretty sure Kienen does not tune our stock ecu, I believe just AEM.

Don't worry, freedom wash will blow up when it gets warmer. I've seen quite a few evos out there over the last couple years. Its different cars different nights.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. I've been talking with a lot of people, I guess I confused two.

These guys told me they could get it done but never mentioned outsourcing to someone else. They made it sound like they had the ability.
