Thumbs up

JDM has treated me great, nothing but good things to say about them, when I did use Sal and Johnny they were great too, nothing negative to say about any of them. They are all great tuners, Call and talk to each of them and make your mind up then. No matter your choice you will get great service. JDM is on there way down to Texas to race at the FFW events and from your screen name, if I read it right you might be able to meet them in person. Good luck with your mods.

I personally use Sal at PowerSurgePerfomance, because he has been dealing with the Gen 2's the longest, at least he has had a business dealing with them the longest. That being said, I think you can't go wrong with any of the top four. It's your money, spend as you please. Good Luck

Thumbs up Get to FFW

Get your butt over to Houston Raceway Park this weekend, fro Fun Ford Weekend. Go and meet Jim and his crew, I bet he will have a stage 1 kit there for you and install it free of charge.

This is not a request!!!!!!!!!!!! drop what ever you are doing and get there. What better way of judging the man than to meet him. How often do you have one of the tuners in your state. After you meet him I am sure all your questions will be answered, and I bet your truck will be flying when you leave.

Thumbs up Thumbs Up 4 JDM

Like Don said, JDM will make your truck run great, but you have to make your own choice, I chose JDM and have been very happy with the results in performance, (approaching 11's) good luck with your decision, John H.

Thumbs up JJ is da man

JJ has performed all the work on my truck. Except for a certain Bullitt fuel door. I have complete confidence in his mechanical abilities and have found him to be motivated out of a love for fast vehicles, not $$$$$ like so many others. JDM parts are the best engineered and are a great choice for mods. Others have their preferences but to each his/her own.

I have only dealt with JDM personally.Living in N.J. and being 20 minutes from there helps.The thing I like about JDM is they are a full service shop(installs,fabricating,etc..).Besides the fact that they are very nice people to do buisness with.
I have talked to Johnny L on the phone and he was also very nice and answered all my questions.
I will be ordering PSPs Driveshaft loop and I am sure Sal would give me customer satisfaction.
Bottom line .Read the boards.Talk to the tuners and decide for yourself.

I think you should go to their message board on nloc and look at my last post, But I only believe one man ever walked on water and they crucified him.

If you're dead set on buying JDM parts, talk to Mike Troyer "Superchips Distributor" in the Computer Chips forum. He deals in JDM parts and you will not pay a penny more than if you bought direct from JDM.

Mike is the most knowledgable person that I've ever talked to and he will do your legwork for you. He will maintain good communications with you which is very rare around these parts.

A word to the wise.

Tim
I agree 100% .... Mike Rocks..... he has burned chips for BOTH my F150's

PLUS Mike is a Supporting vendor so you will be supporting the site....

And as Don Said if you go to FFW Houston you will get the chance to meet most of the HALO guys, many of the TALON guys including ME and check out MANY mods forst hand and Jim@JDM and his staff will be there since they sponsor the Top Truck class... Top Truck should be HUGE in Houston.....

Your going through a hard time right now, no need for the shamless plugs, just to help a tuner out because lack of people skills on thier end........or something.

Besides, most of your little trophies were under PSP power, run at an1/8 mile track.
No need to "influnece" the newbies into thinking something differently. Why lie about it? set yourself free.
