Yes, true. Let's just say Mark and I were without communication, and my post precipitated his response. I pulled it as it appeared a negotiation was about to proceed. Anyway, we worked a deal. He's taking over the job, and I'm now without spite as we have worked a mutually beneficial arrangement.

Mark's still gonna be tuning, and I'll be there for "knowledge transfer."

I know theres a few shops in WA that tune and have 4wd dynos.
I think theres a couple here in Oregon too, but I don't know the shops name.
I don't pay attention to dynos much, I would rather have timeslips than dynocharts, plus a good tuner can tune just as good if not better on the road.
