I'd be willing to bet if you look up alot of the higher hp blower and urbo cars, you'll find alot more blow thru then draw thru setups.

If it was my car I wouldn't ever take it somewhere that the tuner didn't feel comfortable with everything that was done to the car.

+1, if he isn't comfortable there's no way I would take it to him. I spent weeks of phone calls and research to find my tuner and I am very comfortable with him now, he has my business for life. I would call tuners within like a 2 hour drive of where you live and just ask them as many questions as you can and see how quick they can answer and how well they can answer you. That will tell you a lot about your car. I drive 2 n a half hours one way to get to my tuner but it is worth it


And yeah im love my blow thru setup, I never plan to switch to draw thru

Dude you need to find a new tuner. Blow thru set ups are much easier to tune the draw thru. You get a much better reading with the air closer to the T/B. If you have done everything right and from reading all these posts it seems you have then you should be good to go. Check around for another tuner. There has got to be more then one in your area.

Im not from that area, may have better luck getting a answer in the regional section?

Just ask him as many questions u can think of. Like if he is good with blow thru setups, how many he has done, which setup does he like better(blow thru vs draw thru) and why he likes what one he likes and go from there
