Hey guys, I posted this in a seperate thread too but I figured it might get more views here.

My 03 Evo 8 needs it's 60k service performed & one TSB fixed (heater knob).

Which dealer do you guys recommend or is there someone else reputable that you guys would trust to take your cars to?

Just wanted to show people what Doug can do with a tune. I just bout a 9 RS today. The previous owner had the car road tuned here in las vegas. Since I've always had doug work and tune on my other car it would only be logical for me to take it to him and have him retune it. The car had Rebel 100 in it. We did the base run which had the road tune and the car made for some reason more boost than the following runs. It only took doug two runs after the base run to get to where it is now. Also this is not an aggressive tune just a quick one to get the fuel correct and a change to the timing. You can see the time stamp at the top that it only took 24 minutes to tune this car. I just wanted to show people the difference of why tuning on a dyno definitely makes a difference. E85 results will be shown next week.

Thanks Dan.

Robs car with the Red is definitely impressive!!! He should post up the layovers of his car with the turbo swap. I was definitely impressed with the red.

ya I text him to see how it felt and he said he didnt give it a try yet. Problem is those cheap tires he got for that thing. He needs to step those up a bit before he tries the track haha Evos dont belong on discount sale rack tires
