I had my motor turned into a 302 stroker and dyno tuned by them. Chris Rose(their tuner) is good but they do get overwhelmed there taking on more work than they can handle. He originally did a tune similar to their all out tune on my car but for me, the throttle response was too touchy since I have a very grabby spec 3+ clutch. I suspect if you have a stock or twin disk clutch it would be doable. So I ended up getting the equivalent to their 93 performance tune that was tweaked on the dyno.

I did not have a good experience with them. I had CAI /dyno tune from them, first they didin't have the right part for the intake, they gave me a substitute and said when they get the right one they'll mail it to me......and after calling them a few times asking for it I never got it..........(that was 6 month ago)..now the tune it self, it seems fine but loading it I had problems, when switching from 87 to 93 it didin't want to rogram right, after doing so I had check engine light, after doing it again it did work......next time I'm going next door to Evolution, I had beter experience there............

I don't have experience with either but I have heard good things about blowbyracing and jdm tunes. I have brenspeed tunes though and couldn't be happier with them

I've had good service and the All-Out tune is fantastic.

Trying to reach them via email is like trying to convince a wife that you're right. Your best bet is to call and speak with Chris Rose directly.

I have their 93 All-Out Tune and couldn't be happier...Chris is very easy to work with and very quick with getting tune rewrites back to me when needed...I would definately recommend them for a tune...the throttle response is amazing and it pulls hard all the way to redline

LOL! That is so true. I emailed them MONTHS ago about the flashing O/D light issue w/ rough idling cams and auto but never heard back.

BBR is the same way with email. Good luck. Calling them works fine though.

TBH I'm sick of dealing with hit or miss email tunes. It's dyno time.
