Send it to Force Engineering... much better shop with a solid machine shop. Call John Whalen and have a conversation with him, IMO he's far better.

Any of you guys know if Moran Mitsu or the dealer in Livonia are mod-friendly? I'm gonna get my car tuned soon.

quit taking the car to dealers .... take it to a real shop. Nearest one to these is probably Pure-Tuning in Toledo. Worth it.
