ecu tune feeler

hi everyone. i have been emailing tony at eurocharged and basically begging him to come to the middle tn or atl. area to do a dyno tune day.
well he finally said if i posted a feeler and helped him find a shop he would see if we can pull this off.
think about it, middle tn is less than 600 miles from 2/3 of the population of the usa!! this is a great oppurtunity to get a custom tune from what i believe is the premier tuner in the country at this time.
so if anyone is interested post up here and lets get this done. everyone can use a tune and most want one. so lets do it!!!

If you can't get the interest, just have Tony or Jerry mail you their remote tuning kit. Slap your car on a dyno, setup the remote kit and you're in business.

The bad part about that suggestion is the quite hefty deposit needed in order for them to send the remote tuning kit out to you... $$$$

It's just a deposit. Throw it on a credit card and have them back it afterwards.

I didn't realize they required a deposit. I guess since I'm a repeat customer, they sent me one in good faith.

like i said puter retard! also i dont own any credit cards. they are my crack! so its cash and carry for me. plus its worth the effort to meet some of these guys that share the passion i have for my car

well we have the 5 car minimum!! i emailed tony for the next step in the deposit process and am awaiting the news. still time if anyone wants to get in and have a master tune your car!! looks like atl will be the tuning location
