Translation;

A newbie may actually call someone other than JDM to get his tune and mods done.

Local guy runs 12.40's here with a 4lb lower and another less known tuners tune so whats the big deal?

There are other tuners out there tallimecca.

Yes he is and he also can put you in the ground money wise with his aggressive tuning!
You ask me..... ,is it a good place to get parts, yes! But before i get reamed it is only my opinion and one experience i know of.

 

So Bruce are you saying that posts around here are biased towards a certian east coast tuner?

1fst54, please give us the actuall timing he was set at.

Personally, I always "stick a little in my pocket". A few gallons of some high octane will go a long way as some added insurance against detonation.

All he has done is a 4lb lower & a tune? thats it? No other mods whatsoever?
Drag radials are a mod, holes in the airbox are a mod, etc....



The point tallimecca was trying to get across is that wydopnthrtl had more than just 2 mods (4lb & chip).

I'm betting your local friend has more than a 4lb & chip.

 

Yeah, sorry, I left out the real secret mod... His Shaker hood.

No ****, so why don't your re read what this post is about you friggen wing ding. This has nothing to do with tuner vs tuner. I was just making the point that the way the post sounded that this guy was gonna bolt on a 4lb pulley and call Rem.........or any tuner for that matter and run 12.4's. I have nothing against REM and have stated many times to people inquiring that i've heard nothing but good things about REM. One of my buddies got taken care of by them with some predator tunes in a pinch and ran his best dyno numbers on their tunes.

I'm not the only one that read it this way obviously, thats why I posted.

So instead of trying to turn this into some kind of tuner war or anti JDM post, why don't you try to think of something to add to the community rather than looking for trouble as usual

My first post said the following.

Before you flame someone, I suggest that you have more than unclear and unconvincing hearsay to back you up. Were you there when your "friend" had the alleged incident? Did you have an expert analyze the true facts of the occurrence. I hope for your sake that you know what you are talking about because your statement may be actionable. I suggest you stick to reporting your own, first hand experience. Just my opinion.

 

Ok guys thanks for your help. I was trying to see if REM would be a good place to get a tune. I do not want to blow a motor.
I wanted to add my own 4# pulley and CAI from LFP and then get a safe tune from somone close to me ( south florida} Thanks again. Fred

 

hey hemifw in down here in west palm beach and if you want to, you can follow me down to REM next wednesday the 10th and watch my dyno tune to help decide if you want to get yours done, they did my truck before i bought it but the seller took the chip with him so i have to get it reprogrammed

 

My statement maybe "actionable" Was I there when it blew up Yes! Not for the tuning. Did I have a certified mechanic tell me his thoughts, Yes!

Not a Flame, just answer in my OPINION on a tuner in my area. Would I trust you .... I mean trust him with my truck , well NO!

If someone on this board ask for an opinion it is my right to tell how I feel about this shop credibility. For it being actionable, I think not, my be in your opinion!

 

I know someone that went to REM for a tune last month on his

04 cobra convt, and he currently getting a new engine at another

shop after he melted 2 pistons.

 

Just call JDM and be done with it!

 

I tried that back in 2002. Did'nt work... And it's funny that when I tried to post my experiences with them.. I was shut off from sharing the FACTS about my experiences.

You should know better!!!
