Sean Ivey, What can I say...The Man!!!

Here comes another stellar review for Mr Ivey and his crew!!!! Here's the backround on my car: I bought my 2004 Evo from a member on here from the Chicago area. It had 52,000 one owner miles with the following mods:

Buschur 3065 Turbo Kit (Tuned on 93 Pump at 25psi by Sean)
HKS 272's
Fidanza Cam Gears
BPR8ES Plugs gapped to 0.22
Buschur Old school Intake
PPI Coated/Ported Manifold
PPI Coated/Ported TB
Turbo Back exhaust with test pipe
Precision 1000cc injectors
AMS Frount Mount with Hard Pipes
Forge DV
Forge MBC

From the moment I researched tuners, Sean Ivey was at the top of the list. His shop's reputation is well deserved. When I bought the car it had been sitting for the better part of 2 years. (It was in excellent condition, but had Idle and stalling issues) I replaced the Crank and Cam sensors which helped but the car was still not right. I took the car to Sean on a saturday 3 weeks ago and it's the best $450 I could have ever spent!!! He tuned my car for about 3 hours and the car is absolutely running flawless now!!! He kept me informed every step of the way through the tune as well!!! The car pulls like a freight train and made 404WHP and 350ft/Lbs of tourque. I could not have asked for better service or a better tune!!! Thanks Sean and staff for everything!!! The 2 hour drive from the Poconos was well worth it guys!!!
Top notch, A+++++, Can't say enough good things!!! PICS and Dyno Pull Video below!!!

Here are a few pics of her:
