Ya, I'm jealous I wish I could get mine dialed in. Would you mind PMing me and letting me know who the tuner was so as not to make the same mistake? It's stories like this that make me wish I had a local tuner, or knew how to do it myself!

So in 2nd gear you can burn them for about 80feet

yep lol. 2nd gear would burn for a long time. haven't opened it up yet though from a dead stop in first. There are a few MINOR things i want him to change, just shifting isnt exactly how i want it, no big deal though, besides that, the engine is crazy!

yes he will do tuning for a n/a engine. Dyno tuning really isnt the way to do it, you need a tuner who can do a base tune, ride with you while you drive, and make adjustments on drive ability. you cant tell how its going to run on the road from a dyno.
