I'm not familiar with Switzer. They must just tune Evos or something....never heard of'em.

Whatever the case, it's pretty clear that the guy got seriously screwed. Sucks.

I dont know much about the details on this, I came across the rumers about 6 months ago on the subaru forums. It involved this guy scott who was working for Tim and was complutily building a purple WRX. Scott was using money that he was stealing from Tim to pay for the work being done to his car. Probably put over 100,000 into the car and then some how got the car anyway.

Here is the thread

Not to bring this thread back from the dead or anything but I am getting tuned by Tym in the next week at his new shop. I have a friend who got tuned by him like a week ago and made 11 pulls on the dyno before he got everything right. This man seems to know his stuff and is a perfectionist.
