76 days and still no tunes from Troyer...
#77
Its not bashing for me, just trying to understand how long it takes to make up tunes for an internet order and why 10 weeks is warranted (maybe tunes take a long time to make, I don't know personally)
I don't support any of the big 3 mentioned here currently, not sure if I will be. Just diggin for info currently.

Come on guys - is it really necessary to act like a bunch of kids? "My Dad can beat up your Dad ..." . "Oh ya? Well my Dad has a bigger...".
The really great thing about these forums is that we can share ideas and learn from each other. I've learned a TON in the short time I've been here. Sure, we all have our preferences, but dammit! Let's be civil!
One thing we DO seem to agree on, custom tunes are great! Let's go with that. And if you have a reason for liking a particular tuning expert, try to say WHY without bashing someone else. If you can manage to do this, it makes you a lot more believable - and might even bring converts over to your side.

Good link from VMPs own site. How about an independent source? And how about facts to back up all of your claims?
VMP deserves the recognition, no doubt there.
And I wonder who was number 1. Troyer?
As has been said over and over, both guys are good choices along with Bill for the Gryphon.

Grow up and stop your anti Troyer act. Both guys are great tuners. There is room for all. Choices are great.

VMP web site
I am interested in an alternative.
Justin you have a decent message on your site, however I am worried that it is not conveyed very well. If you have a hard core CAR modder google your site, they may be able to glean what they need, but us truck guys have no idea that you can do trucks. I recommend that you or your site provider/creater/hoster include a list of vehicles on the main page that you can tune.
When choosing the custom tuner you wish, I see the fields you can fill in, however in the gears field there is no option for 3.08 which is actually fairly common on a lot of F-150s (granted it is a stupid option for either motor you choose).
Post some pictures of the cars you have tuned with links to the mod products you have used on them.
I may be calling you after my gear swap this month (3.73s finally!!!!!). I have heard many rave reviews about Mr. Troyer, however I am just not willing to spend $450+ and wait 10 weeks when the reviews I have read for your shop are indicating turn around closer to three weeks.
If you need help with your site you are welcome to PM me as I am an IT professional and may be able to help you facilitate some changes to your site that would ultimately net you more hits and possibly more sales.

Did you have stock tune and go with a custom tune?
I have to ask, Is there that much difference between custom tunes and say a superchip tuner (that what I have)?
I did notice a large diff. between superchips and stock. Are custom tunes another large jump in the performance scale?
